With Fox News somewhat on the ropes and a Dominion case left to close out and the general “second tier” nature of all the ultra-right outlets, maybe NBC is thinking it’s time to switch political teams. It’ll take a long time for “Democratic” viewers to realize that they are frogs in a boiling pot, and some people, even current “liberal democrats” would likely move slightly right if they were bombarded with more right wing talking points. If Trump wins, they can finish a pivot. If he loses, they can snap back pretty easily too.
