Our media needs to incorporate into their presentations a retinue of mantra issues. Take note: That is exactly what Trump’s choir does all day long. We must help the public to understand and appreciate key issues in depth. There are many issues left adrift. Often mentioned, but hardly ever explained, is that Trump’s solicitation of a Ukraine investigation of the Bidens damages our national security. But how does it do that? I have heard the “how” just two, or perhaps only three times.
If Ukraine helps Trump to avoid impeachment, or to get re-elected, Ukraine will lose the support of Democrats. Ukraine is fighting a hot war with Russia right now. Given the “coincidence” that most everything we have been doing in international affairs benefits Putin, losing Democratic resistance to protecting Ukraine will jeopardize Ukraine’s independent existence. Losing Ukraine to Russia would be a disaster!
There are other critical issues that should be brought up every day AND explained. Here, reiterating, however often, that Ukraine working on behalf of Trump is bad for national secutity has little power without explaining how. The power of understanding is in the HOW: Losing Democratic support could lose Ukraine to Russia and Putin. This knowledge MUST be kept in the public mind.
This, and all other KEY elements to a crystal clear BIG Picture sense of what is happening, must be brought home to all of us – especially to those who without it would have muddled impressions – and must be brought home each and every day!
