Trump did NOT win 2016 on a "I will save the rural areas" message. He won it on a "I will punish the people who didn't get screwed over because how dare they" message. Trump was never the rural area's savior, he was a convenient bag of burning dog poop to put on everyone else's porch. As to how much it's working this time... time will tell. Hopefully not as well.

He didn't "win" on his message either. He didn't move the dial much from McCain's and Mitten's numbers, showing that the absolute ceiling for the republicans is 60,000,000 and shrinking. He "won" because the republicans, seeing that Hilary Clinton was vulnerable organised the biggest voter disenfranchisement system in the history of the state, bigger than pre-CRA Jim Crow, almost as big as slavery.

Continued from here. You can reply to or quote any post from that or previous parts of this thread.
