Daily Beast editor: Non-Cosmopolitan Rural Voters For Trump are the ‘Real Problem’
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 01/29/2017 10:34:31 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Message from MSNBC to you hicks out in the sticks: the people who gave us Le Pen, Brexit and now, Trump represent the “real problem.” Unlike we city dwellers, you don’t “mix” and “get along together” with people from “cosmopolitan cultures.”

. . .

Then came the pièce de résistance—Dickey’s swipe at the great rural unwashed: “the voters who cast their ballots for Marine Le Pen, for Brexit, for Donald Trump, they’re not the people who are part of those cities, those cosmopolitan cultures where people mix and get along together. That is the real problem. That’s the divide we need to watch.”

We just had some brain from DC wanting to help us out with our problems, which he deemed to be teenage pregnancy.

I know he thought I was a hick and didn’t know what I was talking about until I pointed out that in a small town you know the saints and the sinners. In the city I’d have to go to the ghetto to see some of the things I’ve seen and know some of the people I know. I know skid
row bums and bank presidents, priests and ministers and murderers.

I’d sure rather see a pregnant teen than a drug addict teen. Drugs are our problem and I’m ready for the wall.

He couldn’t believe I wanted the wall and I told him of the devastation MEXICAN drugs are causing and how
easy it is for them to bring them in.

He very obviously thought the wall was just going to close off the whole border until I pointed out that we will still have Ports of Entry and if what you’re doing is legal you should have no problems.

He actually wasn’t from the government but was woefully ignorant.

It was mainly the Cosmopolitan “sophisticated” Germans that voted for Hitler.

???????????????

Evidence?

Hitler did much better in rural Protestant areas than he did in Berlin or Hamburg, where the cosmopolitans may have lived. Rural Catholics had their own party and were less likely to vote for the Nazis in the German elections, but plenty of them supported the Nazis in Austria. Hitler really hated "cosmopolitan" Vienna and identified with the "pure" Germans in the countryside.

So now we know what the Daily Beast is before we start reading their articles. You get to know who the nonsense news organizations are after a short time.

I am disappointed, he failed to call us ignorant inbred hillbillies, when the left is duriding us they should ensure that they use all the appropriate terms that they normally use.

I think this song by the wife of Marine (when he was younger) says it all.

Yup!

And PROUD of it.

City dwellers are just like any other herd or hive animal. They are always chasing whatever the leaders tell them to.

One of my rural neighbors stopped to watch the women’s march. He said, Look Son, an angry purple-haired woman dressed as a vagina is here to lecture us on human dignity.

It'll be less than 5 days. Let the power go out and see what happens after 24 hours.

Yes, they would freak. 😀
