Actually even longer. Fox News was thought up after Nixon’s resignation with the expressed intent of making sure that a conservative politician would never have to face consequences like that again.
And the genius of it was that no one (other than the invaded countries) really cared because the US accumulated so much soft power, goodwill and general positive impression. Trump undid in a few months what took generations to build.
Well I mean, we paid them a lot so that it looked like we weren’t just randomly invading Iraq for reasons no one but Cheney seemed able to concieve of.
Oh its more than one stupid person. American diversion from reality has been in the making for over a decade.

Liberating other countries from their oil!
Yeah laugh it up… The fascists have infected most of you’re countries as well. Please learn from our blunders.
I’d like to think Americas reputation has been down the pan for decades. They’re warmongering, other country meddling, global terrorists at best.
The people can be alright, but the government are no better than the people they tell us to hate.
