Indeed! This is an interesting and relevant portion from the book White Rural Rage (that I've plugged a few times before)...

Just finished this book
For anyone on this thread that cannot comprehend the political climate in the US right now, this is a must read. Very educational and spot on in so many ways. Many of us LIVE this every day through family, friends, and acquaintances. It's just life now.
Mrs PF footy just read Dying of Whiteness that, among other things, goes into detail about the health issues facing rural white Americans and how they continue to vote against their best interests and why that is the case. From what she has told me, some of the details of these books overlap
These books just help to drive home what's going on here, and why I'll fly off the handle when people start nitpicking all of the Democrats flaws, including Harris. We are so far beyond politics as usual it's hard to fathom, when the GOP lives in a completely different universe, and non-MAGA (Democrats and non-MAGA Republicans) are held to a completely different standard, because the media treats MAGA and Trump as the obvious jokes they are, but treat non-MAGA as the adults in the room held to a higher standard.
Infuriating
