Idiots gonna idiot. I love the point about how the liberals don’t fall for the bullshit as easily.
The bottom line here is that there is a huge lifestyle and ideology split between urban and rural America, it’s never going to reconcile, and almost none of the politicians really care about the average joe in either area.
The thing about Trump that gets me is how fucking B A S I C he is. He probably thinks Putin can’t wait to be his best friend now that he is president, envies and admired his money, and I hope one day once he’s out of office putin tells him to his face that he played him and that he never liked Trump in the first place. Putin is too good for that though. He’d never sabotage a useful one of his tools like that.

People in urban areas are inclined to care more about the well being of other people because of how they live. It’s a shame it prevents them from being as vicious politically.
I wouldn't say they care more. They just have different systems for caring. A small town might think it is the churches job to take care of the poor where a city might think it is the gov's
I've actually found that blue collar country men and women way more quick to lend a helping hand in an accident situation. City slickers sit there slack jawed or take a too-busy-to-be-troubled attitude (cowards, really). It'll most likely be a good ol' boy helping you out of the ditch in a car crash.
Electoral college yadda yadda boo hoo.

I think a difference is that events like car accidents are far more common here. I see at least one every day.
People are all about their freedoms until their neighbor stops mowing the lawn.
