idk. I had some young country music fan put a Trump flag around my neck one night on the boat this week. 😳 I played the Canadian card and extracted myself from that situation PDQ.
I think she was from FL, if that makes a difference.

straight up.
when your demographic is shrinking, your only option is to stop your opposition from voting.
it is what dictators do. and corrupt legislators.

All the rednecks are the trump loving idiots. |

I was speaking to someone today who is not a redneck, but believes we should support the duly elected President, no matter what party he belongs to, and no matter if you did not vote for him. I agree with that thinking in general, but cannot in good conscience support the current president.

He is still popular with the young red necks around here too....lower Ga. But....it is changing with some of the older red neck farmers & others who depend on foreign markets for what they produce.
And I'm an old fart too....can't stand him, never could!

I agree with that thinking in general, but cannot in good conscience support the current president.  I was not a fan of GWB. I did respect him, however. I did not like his policies, and I thought some of his advisors were shady (Rumsfeld and Cheney, I'm looking at you). I did believe he had the best interests of teh country at heart. I think the only thing Trump cares about is Trump. |

I agree in general, but have seen too many people holler about us not supporting trump but did the same things (or worse) about Obama. I wasn't a huge fan of Obama, especially at the time, but still gave him respect.
trump....I just can't. He doesn't even respect the office of President - why the hell should I?

Normally youth don't vote in large #'s and I wonder if there are enough of them in those low populated States where Trump won the electorial vote.. Small population, few job opportunities, youth flee to urban centers{Blue States} leaving the older generation, who support the Donald home{Red States}... Just saying |

Arizona glides in and out of purple status. I suspect the absolute best thing I could do is to register and encourage voters who are young or maybe haven't voted before, maybe 1st generation Americans, etc.
Sounds terrible. I guess I don't care **that* much.

that's why the GOP is working so hard to suppress voting and gerrymander voting districts. They are desperate to hold on to power. Not going to work |

They will ease back to a more moderate position. It will take them 30 years. |
