That is the way I feel about it. As long as bastards like that don’t like me, I don’t worry. I would worry if they started liking me. People like us will survive when asses like him are starving to death.

Trump’s me-against-everybody combativeness, his refusal to back down, his vows to disrupt Washington deal-making are giving the hillbilly class a feeling they haven’t had in decades: that they’ve got a friend at the top.


For those who didn’t read the article.............

Who is poor? I do not have a lot money, but I am not poor. I am happy. I enjoy life. I have God.I don't have to be pumped full of drugs to cope. I don't have to see a psychiatrist.

I thought that, portraying Trump's supporters in the worse light possible was the m.o. of the media. The newspaper is part of the media. The media is all Liberal, Socialists, or whatever you want to call them. They are all Anti-American. Over the years, some masqueraded as Conservative a/l/a George Will, etal., until the time came for him/them to show their true colors. Evidently , the time has arrived. We [Trump supporters] stand alone, My Friend. That is a fact. You can like it or not. The choice is yours. But it is what it is.

No doubt all the media will array itself against Trump in the months ahead. They will go all-out to portray Trump as a monster and those supporting him as a bunch of unwashed rednecks and racists. This is the narrative decided upon and they will go all-out.

It is truly an election of the Establishment vs the People. And we must stand strong despite the incredible amount of vitriol coming our way for supporting Trump.

This may be the last chance for the People of the United States to take back their country.

"Obviously you havent met Meemaw."

I questioned that a passed-out drunk, soaked in "gasoline," could escape with "minor" burns.

Obviously, the term “white-trash” is completely acceptable in modern parlance. I would ask these hypocritical elitists for the equivalent ‘acceptable’ term for non-whites who exhibit the same characteristics they claim are exhibited by those whom they classify as ‘white-trash’ which warrants such description.

It is our last chance, My FRiend. Hilary goes after those whom she perceives to be her political, or just plain enemies including those who defy or oppose her. If you don’t believe that, ask Billy Dale.

That’s actually a ‘rayciss’ word.
We can call ourselves that, but woe to anyone else who dares! :-)

“Since there is no black trash, am I to assume that blacks is analogous to white trash.”

In the south of my youth, we learned the subtleties of race and class by osmosis, without really addressing the issue directly.
The “coonasses” and “rednecks” I grew up among mostly took our cues from the “colored people” (polite term back then) themselves, because we lived among them.

Black folks who were church-going, law-abiding, decent folks were just folks, and we saw no particular reason to even mention race.
Mr. Henry was just a neighbor, Miz Jane was just Miz Jane, the lady who makes the best pies, go on down and get you one.

OTOH, young no-account blacks who spent their days cursing, fighting, shooting dice, drinking and stabbing—? We referred to the black trash the same way the colored folks did.
I still think this way. Just not out loud.

I never really thought much of it until I grew up and marched for Civil Rights, when there was a lot of angst over whether “negro” or “colored”
were more demeaning terms than “black.”
I realized that the way I had been taught as a child, it was more about class than about skin color, “class” meaning not money or social status, but in the sense of one’s dignity and self respect.
It really was about the content of one’s character.

As a PROUD piece of “white trash” I’ll tell you why: We do not suffer fools gladly and do NOT appreciate someone pizzing down our leg and telling us it’s raining.
