Why Would Rural Americans Vote for Those Who Hate Them?

By J.B. Shurk

It never ceases to amaze me when the same politicians and pundits who spew vile rhetoric aimed at rural Americans all year long turn around and ask for those Americans' votes. The New York Times (the titular "paper of record" that pushed Trump-Russia "collusion" lies while ignoring the Biden Crime Family's quid pro quo money-making in Ukraine) recently featured an opinion piece claiming that "Biden has already done more for rural America than Trump ever did." Democrat lemmings quickly regurgitated the overrated rag's propaganda.

After feeling the tug on his leash from Old Witch Pelosi, the honey-trapped Congressman Eric Swalwell (whose dimwittedness made him a natural target for the Chinese Communist Party to compromise) laughably insisted that under China Joe's lethargic leadership, "we are all doing much better ... especially ... rural America." As is only fitting for a regime requiring its own Ministry of Truth, Swalwell then instructed his (brain-dead) Twitter followers to share the Times story "to make sure we all understand." And so, right on schedule as midterm elections near, the anti-democratic Democrat party pretends rural American voters have never had it so good, and certainly better than the gun-totin', Bible-thumpin' racist rednecks deserve. Ah, the politics of condescension still smells worse than pig manure on a hot day. Uff da!

For the record, the only people better off in rural America during the reign of Jo'Bama are the Bill Gates billionaires and mysterious Chinese corporations buying up farmland throughout the country. For everyone else, Obamacare's destruction of rural hospitals, nonsensical Green New Deal diktats, outrageous fuel and feed costs, infrequent yet prohibitively expensive fertilizer shipments, and destabilized supply chains, plus the return of Big Government agricultural regulation and Chinese trade appeasement, have created grim economic times and uncertain futures. In President Trump, farmers had a man who understood their needs and fought for their interests. In President Dementia, farmers have an enfeebled man who has no sympathy for their needs and fights for China's interests.

Another excellent article by J.B. Shurk.
From the OP:

"Farming attracts a certain kind of people — those who are willing to put their fortunes on the line season after season, herd after herd, for uncertain reward.  You can do everything right and still suffer the unforgivable fates of pernicious weather and disease.  You can work your tail off just to eke by; in fact, when conditions are rough, just eking out a living perversely requires working harder than ever.  You can put in a long day's work, just to discover that your efforts were in vain.  You can have a great crop or healthy cattle one day only to find fungus and parasites destroying everything you have the next.  If you want to know what the "business of life" is, find a farmer.  It takes grit and spit and blood and many days under the hot sun.  Snowflakes would melt, and champagne socialists would croak.  There's no time for victims, tantrums, or privilege pity-parties out in rural America."

I've thought about and wondered the exact same thing. The only thing I have come up with is that humans have a way of doing the things that they think are wrong, incorrect or against God. There are so many instances in both the old and new testaments where humans go against God, repent and then forget what God has done.

Why would rural americans vote for those who hate them. Because ......they are not voting for those that hate them. THEY ARE liberals. They have come in here from northern virginia or elsewhere cause one time they came through and it was so sweet and friendly they decided to move here...and then they proceeded to make it into the hellhole that they just came from. destroying everything.

I have faggot assholes just up the road and around the corner who fly their stupid rainbow fake flag. There are kids i watched grow up who have been propagandized by freakin' leftist teachers who have come in from terminally ill liberal areas. The same kids, in one instance, who's little ass i saved from two bullies on an isolated playground when i took my three to play there. Little bastard. We have actualy people and a church who throw up BLM signs in their front yards. the idiots. THAT is who votes democrat in rural areas. I just found out yesterday that the county that my old highschool sits on the line is guilty of voter fraud. I don't know where that politician came from but i'll lay odds he is not a home grown boy.

Wow.  I really like this guy.

In the real world, where theories go to die, there is no refuge from the consequences of the idiotic rantings embraced by charlatans, commies, and crackpots.

That'd ^^^ make a pretty good sig line.  

~snip~

Bureaucrats have never seen a problem they can't make worse; rural Americans have never seen a problem they don't expect to fix themselves.  There are no excuses.  There are no second chances.  It's get-to-work, get-it-fixed, get-'er-done.

Now there's somebody who truly understands the farmer, along w/a good lot of rural USA.


And, JFTR, Arkansas has a REPUBLICAN government all the way around. A trifecta in the state, and our Congresscritters, as well.

That is such a drag. I feel so sorry for the hard working, upstanding people (who are smarter than 5th graders) being infiltrated by the ne'er-do-well, dimwitted, gimme crowd. It's gotta be royally hard to hear people like J.B. Shurk blame you for what the losers of this world do.
Maybe you should drop him a line?

We are losing farm land left and right for these big houses that the leftists coming out of NoVa and other over taxed blue states and areas. And it causes our taxes to go up. Who gives a damn about the the population now that there's inflation. My taxes went up by 100s and my insurance rate went up by 100. I thought those were supposed to go down with time?? and no claims? My county mostly votes conservative...but it won't be for long. and then there'll be NO farm land in this area.

WTF? Dude, does this look like a square dance?

Politicians tell voters what they want to hear and then once elected, do whatever they want. The media only "fact checks" Conservatives, Republicans and those who support President Trump, every other person gets a pass.
