THE BIG IDEA:
MIDDLETOWN, Ohio—Many Washington elites, including Republicans, do not know a single person who supports Donald Trump. In this depressed industrial town in southwestern Ohio, it is hard to find anyone who says they are for Hillary Clinton.
“I cannot tell you one person I know of who has said to me that they support Hillary. Not one,” said Chris Polleys, who cleans benzene pots at the AK Steel plant here. “I don’t understand how she’s doing anything in the polls. I see Hillary for prison, but there’s no Hillary for president signs anywhere. It’s just impossible for me to believe that they’re neck and neck.”(continued)

Thanks for Posting 2DV!
The polls are bogus propaganda. Even in CA it’s hard to find anyone mentioning the Witch.
I’ve sHared beers and sandwiches with many manufacturing workers around Ohio, including Boehner neck of the woods. Those folks are Salt of the Earth, really good people. I can’t imagine NY of them being fooled by Madam Secretary.
From the article: “The GOP nominee’s strength can be explained, in part, by his extraordinary popularity with white men who did not go to college in places like this, where Democrats were once strong but which have moved sharply toward Republicans during the presidency of Barack Obama.
“Polleys, 40, was smoking Marlboros and drinking $1 Bud Lights with his brother, Dale Baxter, at a bar along the railroad tracks on the edge of town. Baxter, a machinist, said he met a handful of people in Dayton who support Clinton. But he agrees: Trump will win the election in a landslide. They do not foresee any other outcome.”
Don’t you just love when the Elites laugh at us stupid hicks who have the “misfortune” of living in flyover country?
I pray that on the evening of November 8, we’ll be the ones laughing.
The biggest laugh I’m having this cycle is when the Democrats bragged they supported the “working man”.
Now that the “working man” is voting for Trump, Democrats call the working man Racist, uneducated, hicks.
I guess the “working man” has been supplanted by the “Free Shit Army” on the Democrat plantation.
There was a patron of that little bar along the railroad tracks that made the best homemade Salsa I’ve ever eaten, lol. Middletown was listed in the top ten dying city’s in America a few years ago.
cities moron, go to bed.
Yeah, the day JFK was elected was the last day the Democrats could claim to be the party of the working class. And that was more than half a century ago.
