Are We Drifting Through History?

A man in Michigan being interviewed the other day said that he would vote for Trump because Trump is better on the economy and inflation and the border. He wasn’t asked why he thought so. I doubt if he would have had an intelligible answer. I suspect that he was repeating what’s conventional wisdom among his acquaintances. Not mentioned were any of the thousands of reasons each of which is sufficient unto itself to vote against Trump. Are we drifting through history? Is that the roar of a waterfall I hear up ahead?
