While people love to stream content, I dare say the majority of people who watch "News" get it from either their local broadcast networks via their TV provider or a cable news network.  The bulk of those sources being extremely one sided.

Who?? Don Lemon??? Nah.

I find Don to be fair and balanced with zero animosity towards any Republican.

I don't think Trump will start a new political party because the Republicans will not let it happen.
Just think of that, if trump start a third political party, this is the end of the republican party and many many years of democrats
at the White House.

I think many Republicans will vote to impeach Trump just because of that.  Will see.

It will take 17 Republican votes to find him guilty. I seriously doubt that will happen.

Does the Republicans leader is for impeachment, I think yes, but, not sure

He is already impeached which means the Senate take the charges of impeachment and try him in a trial. To convict him it takes 2/3 of the Senate which is 67 guilty votes.  Senate is split  50/50 so 17 Republicans have to side with 50 Democrats to convict. Majority leader McConnell has not said . Best he doesn't without due process.

centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition
2: a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control

seriously ?

severe economic  regimentation
Trump burned miles and miles of .guv red tape while he was in office

forcible suppression of opposition
doesn't that sound exactly like Big Tech/Dem's crushing our efforts to investigate election fraud
doesn't that sound exactly like 4 years of weaponized Federal agencies in league with the Dem's
trying to depose a legally elected president
doesn't that sound exactly like the Dem's black lists and calls for deprogramming and reeducation camps

social regimentation
that sounds exactly like liberal contempt for fly over county and "deplorables"

The Dem's need to take a long hard look in the mirror before they start throwing the word fascism around

Maybe it's the neonazis at the Trump rallies/protests, I don't know call me crazy.

The percentage of U.S. households that have cut the cable TV cord, are planning to, or have never subscribed:

All households – 64 percent
18-34 age group – 74 percent
35-54 age group – 64 percent
55+ age group – 56 percent

He can't constitutionally be tried as a president since he isn't one.Trying him as a former president will either set a bad precedent or be thrown out by the Supreme court. The last I heard was ten Pubs may vote guilty at this time. I also heard McConnell is trying to strong-arm Senators for a guilty vote.

He was impeached as president; he hadn't stepped down yet.

"Judgment in cases of impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust or profit under the United States."

So, whether or not a civil officer is still in office, if they are found guilty by the Senate, they face losing their job and getting banned from future office.

Some lawmakers, when asked about why they are pursuing Articles of Impeachment, say if Trump is impeached and convicted, he could be barred from running for president again in 2024, or any other elected office in the future.

To disqualify Trump from running for future office, the decision only requires a simple majority of Senators to agree, according to Reuters. By comparison, two-thirds of the Senate is needed to convict and remove a president from office.

You can't disqualify without conviction I would think.
