"I alone can save you"

And think of how many morons bought that shit.

1. Around my neck of the woods they still believe it.

Hell, they elected that stupid ass Morgan Griffith who doesn't even live in our district......twice!

3. I hear the farmers being DEVASTATED by rump's policies are sticking with

him thinking that their DEVASTATION is part of a bigger plan that will help them in the end.

We cant survive people that dumb and racist.

6. The farmers here in Appalachia are (mostly) not as large as other states. More old family homesteads

They are not dumb, but definitely racist. This county is about 96% white.

[Eliot Rosewater]

9. Their racism has to override their intellect then because not one word or action of Rump's

helps them and everything hurts them.

10. Of course it overrides. But this area in SW Virginia has more in common with W. VA then VA

The saying here is that the state of Virginia ends at Roanoke.

What we have here is the old "State of Franklin" which never came to be. SW Virginia, Northern NC and NE TN

2. That dog

Don't hunt. Never did.

4. ... said every abuser ever.

yuge.

7. They all have Stockholm Syndrome

Their hatred of "uppity" Obama pushed the needle all the way to the other side and now they need a shrieking, bloated orange Daddy to tell them what to do.

5. Yes, they bought it. But they also think it's true.

LBJ had it right. As long as they’re still better off than the black guy, they don’t care how bad off they are.

[dameatball]

8. So true. I use that quote on occasion. Have it written down somewhere.

something like...."As long as the lowest white man can consider himself above the highest black man....:....etc....you get the gist.

11. Be VERY wary of anyone who says

"I, alone, can fix this."
