CNN Stereotypes Country Music Fans as 'Trump Supporters'
PJ Media ^ | 10/2/17

Amidst microphone issues at CNN, the home studio was able to communicate with Jeff Zeleny at the White House. He said of the victims of the Las Vegas shooting, "A lot of these country music supporters were likely Trump supporters." Firstly, why does that matter? The worst mass shooting in American history -- what does it matter whom they voted for in 2016?!? But also, is that true? What makes him think that this stereotype is correct?

We're sure that CNN was saying it as something derogatory-- like, these brainwashed rednecks all backed Trump. But it can also be redirected as a compliment. Country music is often the genre with the most patriotic themes, and with the most "salt of the earth"-type fans.

So what?

God centered people are respectful of the murdered, in virtually every circumstance.

He’s probably right. And that’s why they were targeted.

A lot of those 9-11 victims were Obama supporters. Was I supposed to cheer?

A red neck is honorable.

Rednecks got red necks because they picked their own cotton.

The world hypocritically complains about slavery when it would easily have enslaved others to sustain its own life style.

They’re out of touch. Just one look at the crowd you can see a lot of 20 somethings at the concert and from many interviews very few southern accents. Modern country is not like old school country.

I believe Tim McGraw was a Clinton Supporter, and then there was Brad Paisley whom I thought wrote a song after being inspired by Obama’s election to President

So is CNN trying to encourage left wing psychopaths to go after Country and Western event attendees?

Why does that matter? Because it absolves the shooter of criminal intent.

I don't think all that attended were TRUMP supporters!

When you're on vacation & you see a Concert going on, Liberals will go check it out too & Jason Aldean is a pretty popular Country singer!
