They're technically right about *something*.
2008-2020 was a showman era for politics.
08 was revved up as hell with Obama famously taking advantage of online popularity (Ron Paul also had a huge chance based on memes that was basically ruined by the RNC borderline sabotaging him.) 

2012 was when we really saw the first big online meme usage for a presidential election with democrats taking advantage of Romney's gaffes like Big Bird.

Trump took this to the next level and politics were basically a show. Biden by comparison, built himself on being boring as he possibly could and coming off as a "safe" option politics wise.

No mention of the media's culpability?  if people vote based on how frequently they hear about politician's actions then the media has absolute control over them.
