Tom Nichols is far too expert and sophisticated to watch the impeachment circus on TV. He’s opted for radio instead, which has allowed him to pay closer attention to something the rest of us probably were too imperceptive to notice:
Listening to this debate on the radio rather than watching it on TV really brings out the similar speech patterns and accents of the Trump defenders. Make of that what you will. Seems to me the GOP is headed for becoming a rump regional party of the South and the mountains.

Gee, what could he possibly mean by that?

Maybe Jennifer Rubin can give us a clue:

In a nutshell, if you’re not gung-ho for impeaching Trump, you’re probably just an uneducated Southern hillbilly redneck hillbilly who isn’t eloquent like Tom and Jennifer. Cue “Dueling Banjos,” are we right?

From one college educated individual to another….maybe the reason Trump voters don’t listen to anything you have to say is because you continue to call them dumb essentially. I recommend a change in strategy tbqh. https://t.co/aOImccNtds

Who is so super smart that he can listen to talk radio for a few minutes, and draw deep insight from accents on the future shape of politics?
Why, the expert on expertise, of course.
