    This story explains a lot.

    Back in 2016, after the election was over, they assembled a panel of the creators of all the top political TV shows. Veep; House of Cards; The west Wing; Scandal and others.

    Everyone involved said the same thing. If one of their fictional characters had said that they “liked soldiers who didn’t get captured” the TV networks and advertisers would have demanded that character be thrown out of the race by the next episode and be shown as hated by all Americans.
