Must have fat fingered my phone and it autocorrected for me but it’s not far off the mark. A bunch of lost, sad people blinding following a charismatic rapist death-cult leader to the bitter end...same-same.

But it’s certainly more fair. That county DID go 38 points for Trump, but other, wealthier counties nearby went for even more. Why? Poverty porn, probably.

And pragmatism. The premise was that the author had interviewed the same people a year before.

Be warned, all who would read this article. The Stupid is, well, really fucking stupid. It managed to even be stupider than the racism.
