Quotes by Roy Eidelson (?)

“But perspective is important here, because Trump's propaganda playbook isn't really anything new. In various guises, its been around for a long time -- even if most American haven't see his level of mastery in their lifetime, especially with the stakes so high. Ultimately, then, this political moment brings to the fore a clear and compelling message: We can't wait any longer to confront and debunk the destructive mind games of the country's millionaire and billionaire snake-oil vendors.”
