        I'm a white guy from the Midwest. I know Trump voters well. They're just mean and dumb, trying to recreate a past that's long dead. SAD!

        Indeed. I visited a Midwest state and the level of just plain stupidity was overwhelming. People were actually proud of being uneducated

        These stories are pointless. Where in there was a concrete example of something Trump did in Year 1 which made life better? Which year then?

        Iowa actually flipped in 2010. We only stayed purple through 2016 due to incredible organizing skill and a few lucky breaks

        those people helped fuel 30 yrs of neoliberal ideologies that got Iowa to where we are, they just existed before the bubble popped.

        All the nasty crap that happened last legislative session would have happened 6 years sooner if Dems hadn't held on to IA Senate by 1 vote

        Mike Gronstal is a hero for holding that IA Senate majority years 6 longer than we should have. The man deserves a medal.

        Gronstal personally held back all the IA GOP craziness for six legislative sessions, and he paid for it with his own political career.

        6 more years of labor rights. 6 more years of voting rights. Kept the marriage amendments off the floor till after the Supreme Court ruling.

        yes, we have a lot of rural areas...but don't give up on us yet. We are, by nature, more moderate here.

        IMO Iowans (Nebraskans, et al) are kind + generous people who feel somewhat left behind. Sadly, Trump's rhetoric gave them unrealistic hope.
