The truth of America's situation is seen not from political analysis, but the movie "Idiocracy" ...
I'm honestly weary of these recycled hand-wringing analyses of whether we understand the "rural voter" or the "blue collar voter" or whatever. We did the same thing after Trump's win 4 years ago.
If you want to know what's really going on in America, watch the movie "Idiocracy" which is listed as a comedy but which should be seen as prophecy.
