Why Would Rural Americans Vote for Those Who Hate Them?
By J.B. Shurk

It never ceases to amaze me when the same politicians and pundits who spew vile rhetoric aimed at rural Americans all year long turn around and ask for those Americans' votes.  The New York Times (the titular "paper of record" that pushed Trump-Russia "collusion" lies while ignoring the Biden Crime Family's quid pro quo money-making in Ukraine) recently featured an opinion piece claiming that "Biden has already done more for rural America than Trump ever did."  Democrat lemmings quickly regurgitated the overrated rag's propaganda.

After feeling the tug on his leash from Old Witch Pelosi, the honey-trapped Congressman Eric Swalwell (whose dimwittedness made him a natural target for the Chinese Communist Party to compromise) laughably insisted that under China Joe's lethargic leadership, "we are all doing much better ... especially ... rural America."  As is only fitting for a regime requiring its own Ministry of Truth, Swalwell then instructed his (brain-dead) Twitter followers to share the Times story "to make sure we all understand."  And so, right on schedule as midterm elections near, the anti-democratic Democrat party pretends rural American voters have never had it so good, and certainly better than the gun-totin', Bible-thumpin' racist rednecks deserve.  Ah, the politics of condescension still smells worse than pig manure on a hot day.  Uff da!

My question is along the same lines.

"Why do Christians vote for people who fully intend to tear down EVERYTHING they profess to believe?"

Millions do it and I will never understand why!

Q:
"Why Would Rural Americans Vote for Those Who Hate Them?"

Because their parents were "democrats", as were their grandparents, as were their grandparents' parents.

Vote for a Republican?
They could NEVER do that...!

In a lot of rural counties they vote GOP 70+%.

In the VA elections fall some of the western rural counties I noticed were up around 85%.

A lot are legacy union Dems, always a few nut job liberals, and idealistic, rebellious kids.

Most of the blue parts are cities, with the exception of a few Indian Reservations.

Higher population densities tend to vote Democrat.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

C S Lewis
