I think the real problem is a loud minority claim the US wants all these drastic changes to our ways of working. When the reality is the majority actually don't want change. This isn't being cascaded properly by the media, thus people think the US is a bigger mess than it actually is. As example, most people do not want universal healthcare. Most people do not want gun restrictions. Most people do not free college. And people aren't as pro choice as one might think.

And what are your sources... for any of that?

You sound like a generic conspiracy theorist. You started with blaming the media and then making multiple claims without establishing a source or logic for any of those.  Your claims vary greatly having little in common except for one thing. Republican talking points.

Specially in the fact of polls and data that already exist. Specially the ones that show people ARE pro choice. As Kansas showed.  Which is why what should be an absolute Republican landslide is very much not because they are the dog that caught the car.

Being born and raised here.  Knowing how my friends and family vote.  Oh and I am a registered democrat and vote as such.  I'm just telling the truth, which upsets people.  The core beliefs of the average american isn't what people think it is.  This is especially true in the mid-west and south.  

Personally I think Republicans pick up sets this November...  if the average american believed what people think they do....  republicans would get decimated at the polls...  fact is, Republicans are not and are doing quite well over the last decade.  

Edit

As an example, the media makes it out as though everybody hates Trump and he is despised.  While Biden won the election, with me voting for him (for the record, it was pretty close in popular vote.  Clearly Trump isn't as widely hated as he is made out to be.  Granted I don't understand it, because I'm not a fan...  but he did get 75,000,000 votes....
