'In Part 1 of this post, I discussed the "what" of America's moron problem. In
this Part 2, I discuss the "why". I argue that morons in America are made, not
born. Looking at the record of the Republican Party since the launch of Richard
Nixon's "Southern Strategy" in 1972, I describe a Party that has spent decades
cultivating a voting base of morons to serve its interests, only to lose that
base to Donald Trump in 2016. Trump has now taken over the RNC as well as its
base, and is in the process of bleeding the Party dry to fund his many criminal
trials. Should Republicans suffer the catastrophic defeat Trump seems to be
preparing for them, Democrats will have an opportunity to undo the deficiencies
in our democracy that led to Trump and the rise of politically-motivated MAGA
morons in America. Whether Democrats will take that opportunity remains to be
seen.'
