Trumplandia Strong

PELLA, IOWA - I’m a political junkie. Every day I read The Washington Post and The New York Times, among other media giants, with great interest and appreciation. I understand and value the great writing, thoughtful analysis, logic and reasoning. And the fact checking. Especially the fact checking.

Given that I live in Iowa, The Des Moines Register, The Chicago Tribune and The Kansas City Star are among my favorites as well. I also try to catch a variety of broadcast news organizations over the course of the evening. Being ADD, Twitter presents an endless buffet of delightful and distracting news commentary and stories.

I’m learning that President Donald Trump continues to offend, make missteps, court World War III and faces isolation in the face of the worst presidential polling in history. That he faces possible impeachment, or removal from office when his cabinet invokes Section 25 of the Constitution. I learn that the Republican Party is in disarray and may never recover. In this chaos commentators are speculating just how many Democrats will gain seats in the House and Senate and if it will be enough to take over one or both bodies of Congress in 2018. Possible Democratic candidates for president are being vetted for 2020.

This is delusional.

Here in conservative rural America, Trump is ascendant.

More Fly Over Reality...

The New York-based reporter left the Big Apple for an assignment in Indianapolis, Indiana, and when he got into a cab, the driver asked him why he was in town.

Schrager proudly spoke up and perhaps fatally over simplified his job, by saying that he worked in the NFL. But that was a major mistake because upon hearing that, the driver pulled over and told Schrager to get out of his cab.

The driver proceeded to tell the reporter that he did not appreciate the anti-American protests going on each week during the playing of the national anthem, and he didn’t feel the need to do business with anyone representing pro football.

“You can get out of the car,” Schrager said the driver told him. “The NFL is dead to me. The NFL, the fact that these guys take knees, I will never watch the NFL again,” the cabbie added according to the Fox reporter.

“It was the first time I had a real-life experience face-to-face with somebody who was that charged up about this issue,” Schager said. “And I said ‘Wow, that’s crazy.’ And the more you talk to fans who aren’t on the two coasts, the more you aren’t in blue-state territory, this is a real deal, and it is affecting the bottom line. And the owners are seeing this.”

I don't have it handy but here would be a good place to link the story about the former head of NPR spending a year in the Fly Over States and finding out that the Deplorables, aren't

Majority of Americans disagree with Trump about kneeling.

Hopefully the racist cab driver faces consequences from his employer.

Breitbart is so cute.

Rural America's population is declining. Most people live in big cities now, where Trump is reviled.

Rural America is a cancer that needs to be cut out of civilization. It might be necessary to designate those areas as reservations and deprive them of all resources that they need to survive, like their racist forefathers did to the native Americans.

Starve out the rural backwater and don't accept their surrender.

That would only work until people on the coasts started getting hungry.

If he's a Faux Newz minion claiming to work for the NFL then he lied. As for disrespect, I suspect bullshit.

Standing is easy. Kneeling is work. Which shows more respect?

OMG

How rare is it for a Democrat to be that out-and-out honest?

Does this <person> even understand how this edict would fall harshest on rural African-Americans?

In short, he is advocating putting them back onto the plantation to take orders from the house 'N*****" who migrated to the cities?

Oh please.....please be that fucking stupid LOL

The moron doesn't understand that it is the metro life that is dependent upon the agrarian folks....not the other way around.

Cities can implode, bubbles can burst, riots and even war can all go down to the extent it actually kills the city itself........but life out in the boonies keeps on keepin' on. Shit...some folks are so detached they wouldn't even notice.


Sorry LJ, you can't stamp out the working class by no longer taxing/micromanaging them through regulation.....you'll have to go proper socialist and send out your death squads to "equalize" the rural working class whites that you hate so much.

Nah, they have these neat little hydroponics kits you can use to grow veggies on your kitchen counter now. Urbanites will grow all the kale they need. And if they need the occasional dose of animal protein, they can always eat each other.

It's also typical of low IQ Democrat naivete to assume they have the "force" to do what he just hallucinated about.

All over America this morning the sound of progressive hot air seeping out of unicorn fart-filled NeverTrumper balloons can be heard.

Will massive acts of suicide take place in the metropolises if the Mueller investigation clears Trump of any Russia collusion whatsoever?

One can only hope.

I'm afraid their underdeveloped sphincters will universally fail on the news.
