"So, you had a situation where a Democratic president and a Democratic Congress reduced taxes on nearly every person in the country, but the popular argument from Tea Party types essentially boiled down to 'nuh-uh! My taxes feel higher!' despite that not being true.

"This gets a little into the problem we're seeing play out today. People are angry about things that aren't happening, but too many working in mainstream media are - at best - afraid to say so. This happened as angry mobs descended on school boards around the country to demand a stop to the teaching of 'critical race theory' to K-12 students. Good luck finding mainstream media outlets that will consistently say that these parents are protesting something that isn't happening. Instead, you're more likely to find yourself on the receiving end of a lecture that amounts to 'this issue is legitimate because these people aren't faking their anger, and how dare people tell them what they're mad about isn't happening.'"
