Liberal Disillusionment: Apathy or Action After Trump’s Win?
President Trump’s second inauguration marks a significant shift, with a compliant establishment supporting his agenda and key figures like Stephen Miller and Russell Vought poised to exert influence. The presence of Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos at the inauguration highlights the concentration of media power supporting Trump. The Washington Post, under Jeff Bezos’ ownership, faces internal turmoil and a shift in focus, evidenced by its new mission statement, raising concerns about its commitment to journalistic integrity. This confluence of power and shifting media priorities suggests a potential threat to democratic norms.
