Herb Strentz: The real story is not whether Chuck Grassley will seek re-election, but his refusal to denounce Trump’s Big Lie about the 2020 election. -promoted by Laura Belin
A chronic condition of the press is a tendency to focus on the sideshow instead of the main attraction to report “what’s going on” without acknowledging “what is really going on.”
That critique comes to mind in reflecting on recent media coverage and commentary regarding U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley.
To read and view the news, the major issue regarding Grassley is whether he will seek an eighth term in the 2022 election. To me, that’s the sideshow. The center ring is Grassley’s refusal to rebuke fellow Republicans whose Gospel is Donald Trump’s lie that the 2020 election was stolen from him.
