This story is not going to change any votes. That’s the DC elite’s thinking which is to try to pull off a stupid stunt to help Democrats win. They still don’t know us fly-over country folks too well. One person’s action isn’t something we all would paint an entire party with. That’s the Democrat’s way, not ours.
That seems to be true. There’s sort of a reverse provincialism occurring. The deep blue city folks rarely venture from their confines. All their friends and acquaintances are Democrats because there are no conservatives where they live. Their news sources are all leftist. The opposite is true in flyover country. We even visit (or used to visit) big cities. Crime sort of deters that now.
There is a good chance this story is going to explode in their face because it was NOT a “Trump” supporter and the original story does not seem to be supported by the emerging facts.
Paul seems to live a reckless lifestyle.
