        @kdrum This is bunk! Now people in rural areas are "vulnerable groups" who shouldn't be held accountable for bad behavior? 😮

        I just reread the article. Those were your exact words in your analogy. We probably agree on quite a bit, just not this article.

        But I never said they shouldn't be held accountable for bad behavior. I said libs often sneer at their lifestyle.

        That's my question! Everyone I know on both coasts are hardworking people just trying to survive and raise families.

        I also wonder why ppl in rural areas aren't told to assimilate to societal changes + try to understand ppl in larger cities.

        They have had a visceral hatred toward the urban communities for decades now. We have been understanding. Not anymore.

        Actually, the rural interior's support for the imbecile Trump confirms everything we liberals thought about them.

        . No, I disagree...until NOW that they've elected Trump. Before that...respect for values & hard work. Not now.

        It's confusing that you would characterize the group that got Trump elected as marginalized. Minority, yes; not marginalized.
