In a future dystopian America, the answer to a problematic question or comment may at that time be "Who's Brandon?". After all, people need some way to acknowledge the role fake news and media/politician gaslighting played in delivering them into a collapsed, failed-state society, pretty much the same way "Brandon" was exploited and used.

    I am amused by all the hooraw about Cruz 'going to Cancun when his constituants were Freezing to death in February. I am an 84 year old Constituant of his and my 20KW Generac ran just fine. My home was about 73 degrees. We have unexpected snow in Texas every few years and hurricanes annually. We aren't stupid. We don't rely on the government to be our nanny!

    I agree. Imagine becoming a celebrity just because media finds a way to use a falsehood that includes your name to cover up their discomfort with the facts at hand! Could anyone compose this incident as fiction?
