Almost not even surprising anymore to have the raging hypocrisy out there. Still pisses me off even though it shouldn't.

CBJSprague24 posted:Donnie's gonna have a ketchup. tbh I thought they had their Arizona and Georgia numbers backwards, but it's all consistent with pure toss-ups. And the Arizona poll (Donnie +3) had Lake down by like 12 and 25% of conservatives going for Gallego. Downballot candidate quality is really something else this year.

You know, if no one would have corrected him, he would have probably forgotten that he'd ever made that claim, but because he gets corrected every time he says it, he likely feels the need to double down on it and will the award into existence.

It's mostly because Donnie/JD are running an objectively terrible campaign. Today, JD hosed up a campaign stop at a Pittsburgh sandwich shop because his advance team didn't bother to contact the store and the shift manager freaked out and temporarily banned everyone from coming in. Also, Donnie's Big New Thing today was a gloom-and-doom racist rant at a Wisconsin rally where he called Kamala "mentally impaired and mentally disabled" (linked earlier) while declaring that he wasn't owned (also linked earlier!). Just basic poo poo that generates negative headlines (even with a heavy dose of NYT-style sanewashing). If Donnie wins, it will be in spite of his campaign, not because of it.

We need to increase the effectiveness of rural schools 100x or this problem will persist until it destroys the USA. People are just too loving stupid

As the child of rural school teachers, I can tell you that the schools are at the mercy of psychotic, arrogant, selfish and ignorant parents (don't worry they also make up the school boards) and they retired 20 years ago, I can't imagine how bad it is now. We're hosed is what I'm trying to say

Don't forget rural school boards full of batshit insane freaks.

Isn't the problem more suburban educated/mostly educated shitheads with jacked up F-250s with obnoxious accessories* pretending they're rural when they're far closer to the Getting-drunk-at-sports-bar-in-strip-mall-just-off-the-interstate sort? I don't think many rural people, no matter how chuddy, were able to take vacation on a wednesday right after the holidays to go rush the capitol, for example. *I sort them on a degrading scale of worse to even worse, depending on the worst thing possible on the list: *american flag *american flag with eagle *anything to do with god/religion unless done in a mexican catholic sense in which case they might be okay *basic Maga poo poo *low key III% sticker and other outright nazi poo poo *full bonkers trump adonis van art *outright nazi ranting with vehicle covered in screeds/bumper stickers. If they have a twitter it probably involves either a sports team avatar or themselves sitting in said vehicle with sunglasses on. Ronwayne fucked around with this message at 15:45 on Sep 29, 2024 |

The hard core Trump support in rural areas tends to be the wealthy of those areas. The college friend who was just in a Trump boat parade used his family money to buy the used car dealership that he runs, for example.

I went to school in a very rural area in VA, which at the time was top 10 in public education in the US. For me, It just reinforces that there are good and bad rednecks. Schools were well funded and staffed, had a vo-tech program for welding and car, computer, and HVAC repair. Had a few oddball teachers, some in a good way. You weren't expected to go to college because there wasn't one within a 2 hour drive. Everyone in my age group just wanted to get that HS diploma, turn 18, and get the gently caress out of that small town hell. Farming and tourism were the only jobs that existed, it was kinda a rich area full of poor folks like me and everyone around me. I'm really glad I grew up before the camera phone era.... Unsupervised redneck teenagers in the woods with access to guns and farm equipment equals soooooo many technical felonies that would be life ruining if they wound up on YouTube like they would these days. Half the dudes in my highschool were volunteer firefighters because there was simply nothing else to do.

The most interesting thing in it is bro didn't bother voting for like 6 years. You know, because he had no interst in politics till Theil and Trump dropped him into the senate thanks to Ohio's hog voters.

These are also the folks that have Trump shrines at their lake house. Except now tiktok has been showing me videos of lake houses with the giant Harris/Walz signs. I don't think that Harris is going to win any true red states, but something definitely feels different this cycle. I'm seeing way less overt Trump stuff and have personally seen Harris signs in places I didn't expect. Very anecdotal and all, but it feels like there's been a shift of some of his support.

Several other members of his upper-middle class Alabama family are the same-still voting for downballot R's but can't stand Trump. E: several of my under 40 cousins there have had the same swing. All went to college but run the gamut from doctors and lawyers to public school teachers and foresters, and they all voted trump in 2020 but I don't think they will this time. They're far from liberal, but all the culture war stuff that plays well 75 year olds just backfires on them, from immigration to LGBTQ to abortion stuff. They're mad at biden for inflation want lower taxes and hate a welfare queen and they sure aren't voting for Harris, but they just want trump to go away.
