Rural America To Congress And the Media: We Don't Care About Russia

...... beyond the beltway, no one cares. Russia is not the top concern, with many noting that Team Clinton was probably looking for opposition research on Trump. Of course, they were—and they were looking abroad for it as well. If anything, the Russian collusion narrative that’s filled the Washington bubble has only emboldened the president’s supporters. Moreover, you also get why they’re sticking with Trump and why Democrats flipped for him: the lackluster economy under Obama and health care. For some in rural America, they don’t qualify for Medicaid, they can’t afford the Obamacare plans, and the Democrats don’t want to help them (via USA Today):

And yet, the assclowns will continue to howl and whine regardless. Since the doj refuses to entertain easily provable crimes committed by the dementocrats and the opposition party from last Nov, the majority of us are SOOOOO frickin' sick of hearing all this crap. Well you know. Still waiting for someone to show us the collusion staute that was violated. Crickets..........

But the GOP is more concerned about paying for Sexual reassignment surgery in the military than helping out Rural America and advancing President Trump’s agenda.

[MichaelCorleone]

Rural America, aka, flyover country, is of no concern to the elites.

I have a feeling a rude awakening is coming...

[joesbucks]

I agree. Many in rural America don’t care. Many in democratic circles didn’t care about Clinton and Monica. But that was investigated.

I saw this after I posted the first part:

WMAL Caller: We Don’t Care About Russia; ‘We’re Out Here Struggling And These People Don’t Get It’:

I would extend that to pretty much everybody who voted Trump last November. I don't think Trump has lost a single 2016 voter to this constant establishment media drumbeat of Russia, Russia, Russia. In fact, we are only hardening ourselves to support him in 2018 and 2020 no matter what.

Most people in America see that we have a man in the presidency who is looking after America's interest and we are already seeing the results with the economy.

These sore losers are going to get quite the surprise in the mid-terms, let me tell you.

America has awoken.

Until the media cares about holding Clinton and Hussien accountable for their crimes I'm not interested in ANYTHING they have to say.......ever again.

[Morpheus2009]

Until the media thinks wow, we encouraged the war on cops, I don’t take what they say all that close to heart, more like 40 feet or more away from the heart, nah, over 100 feet away and increasing in distance.

[Brandonmark]

Guess what? Not only in Rural America, but in Suburban America and might I add that other than in two states and a district, Urban America also could care less!

[Texas Eagle]

And the reason we don’t care is because we know the whole thing is just one giant, “Squirrel!”

America has been left in terrible shape after 8 years of Obama.

Our political class really needs to understand we want the BS to stop and for them to get busy undoing the damage they have done to our country

Trump did not create our problems , they did. Trump is working diligently and effectively to stay to solve the problems they created and he is succeeding.

I am totally stunned at the response to his effort halt the decline of American manufacturing and off shoring of our industrial base.

He has effectively shut down the flight of American manufacturing and even the Chinese are investing in bringing their new manufacturing plants to America

Trump has sparked a very real renaissance in American manufacturing and he has only been in office 6 months..

We need to stock up on tar and feathers and start milling the rails in case they don't get the message.

[Noumenon]

A rude awakening indeed.

Dear urban elites, SJWs and cloud people,

Where does your food, power and water come from?

We need to pull back on our purchase of the media outlets. Stop subscribing to newspapers, cable, etc.

[bigbob]

We let the Left do it again: spread a false narrative as if it were the truth and put us on the defensive. Having the “@24/7 Russia Channel” gives them an edge but is no excuse for not having fought this with absolute denial, firings, and better crisis management from the start.

In the end Trump and the truth will prevail, but this Russia Crap should have been a non-issue.

And what the caller describes is something I am curious about too. In my circle, I only know of one person who cannot find a well paying job. I'm employed. My wife is employed. My siblings are gainfully employed as well as their spouses. My ex wife and her husband are gainfully employed. My children and step children are employed in the careers they have chosen. All my friends are gainfully employed except one. And he readily admits his employment problems were brought on by his own hand.

Sure, we all would like to make more money, but overall we are doing well.

I keep hearing people can't find jobs, yet employers are begging for employees......who have basic math skills, can show up and can pass a drug test. In Michigan they can't find skilled labor to do construction jobs because people don't have basic algebra skills to pass the trade schools or they can't pass a drug test. High paid union jobs go unfilled.

It's more like most people outside of the US Northeast, around Washington, DC and the US West Coast. Most everywhere else, even in many of the little "blue" enclaves in flyover country, are wondering if the Establishment Media is making themselves look silly doing this.

Yep.

[Uversabound]

we encouraged the war on cops

That poor young woman that was killed in NY assassination style I cannot get off my mind.

She had twin 12 year old girls, a 20 year old daughter and took care of an elderly parent....all on her shoulders.

All on zeros back.

Cricket city is it deafening to you?
