A flyover state is the huge region between the coasts. As opposed to the eastern seaboard, northern post-industrial states and Pacific Ocean states. They’re overwhelmingly Republican, stanchly conservative, regressive right wing, evangelical Christian and working class, well, the loudest, most ill-informed of them are. The term wasn’t commonly used in a political manner until recently with the emergence of the Tea Party and the election of Obama.

Since the inception of the term silent majority almost 50 years ago, and all of its iterations since, this block of voters was hardly a majority and never silent. This group has been exceedingly adept at dominating the narrative in virtually every election cycle. They’re proficient at dog-whistle propaganda, and since the mid-1980s, they’ve created their own media echo-chamber which exponentially multiplies the sound of their own voices, with no interference from outside sources. This was accomplished mainly with coast to coast a.m. radio stations broadcasting 24/7 right-wing indoctrination, to conservative patriot and alt-right conspiracy theory websites of the last 15 years which disseminate tragic half-truths and whole fake news.
The alleged silent majority is deafening and easily provoked. They reside in their own echo-chamber bubble of indignation about everything from "New York values" (urban, ethnic rights, LGBT, social justice), to the war on Christmas and Black Lives Matter. They mocked and derided all people’s protests from Occupy to #NoDAPL. Their old standbys are opposing a woman’s right to choose, reinstituting school prayer and eradicating "big government." They hate progress. Their idea of American values is straight from circa 1870.

Sucks to be you Duane, huh?
This is just the start of America’s revival. And it’s gonna be YUUUUGE!
Keep it up Democrats/Progressives/Liberals/Anti-Americans. The hole you are digging is YUGE!
Shay’s Rebellion, Part 2, coming 1/20/17.
Despotism.
Zero tolerance for diversity of thought.
He has naked disdain for the MAJORITY of this nation.
One day the Stupid Gas fumes will dissipate from the seaboards East and West, no doubt thanks to global warming, and then the liberated former libtards will thank the flyover states profusely for saving them from themselves in 2016.
I’m looking forward to the MSN magazine cover that proclaims “We are all capitalists now”.
Trump and Congress need to decentralize DC by relocating some federal infastructure (e.g., certain federal agencies) to flyover country. For example, the EPA already has it premier health effects group in RTP, North Carolina. USDA has key facilities in many non-DC locations. The CDC is in Atlanta and NIOSH in WV. We need to move entire agency headquarters to other places like Kansas City, Dallas, Phoenix, Denver, Columbus, Nashville, Reno. We don’t need it all squashed into DC and it does not serve the whole country well.
The Hill and their brethren in the MSM throw a bone every once in a while to make them seem “fair and balanced”, but they have no intention of dong anything but destroying their enemy. The way this guy writes is how each of them thinks.
The butt-hurt is strong in this one.
Wow. The author would have written more kindly about ISIS or the Nazis. We ARE the ultimate enemy. These Marxists are as blind and as hateful and as intolerant as the Nazis or the KKK. I grew up reading Shakespeare and Aristotle and Sun Tzu and studying real history, math and science. Things that the average snowflake could not imagine. I can also sight in a rifle. I am ready for the day when they declare that I am subhuman and should be exterminated.
I am forced by the lunatic accusations to ask, what does Duane look like? I did do a search and there are several Duane’s, none of which I could attribute to the Hill.
Ringing loud and clear through his diatribe is the fact that he hates (HATES) Christianity.
I went to his facebook page, and he has a rainbow colored cathedral looking photo there. I would not be surprised if he is a homosexual, and that is where some of his hatred and anger of God and Christians comes from.
Thoughts from the liberal echo chamber
Of course, the inverse is...
America is held hostage by a few high population cities.
Duane; let me buy you another beer to cry in.
The one you have now is too diluted to drink.
How is it possible that one person can hold sold much fart and barf in one body and still live?
Thank God and the Forefathers for the electoral college and Fly over country.
Screw you major metro areas and your liberal ideology
It looks to me like this guy loathes the fact that anyone should be free to seek out accurate news and reasoned opinions.
Thank God Trump won. Under Hillary, we would have been looking at complete destruction of Constitutional government. I saw some leftists commenting on forums that they were looking forward to when President Hillary would start marching Conservatives off to camps.
Leftists are dangerous.
