When J.D. Vance was a boy, his beloved grandmother “Mamaw” told her boozer husband that if he ever came home drunk again, she’d kill him. When he did, and passed out on the couch, she got a gasoline can, poured fuel all over him and dropped a lit match on his chest. He survived with mild burns, and later quit drinking.

One time when J.D.’s mom took exception to something the boy said in the car, she hit the accelerator and sped up to 100 miles per hour, screaming that she was going to kill them both. When he jumped in the backseat hoping to protect himself from the impact, he recalls, she instead pulled the car over “to beat the s- -t out of me.” The evening concluded with Mom being hauled away in a police car.

One of J.D.’s stepdads, Bob, though kindhearted, had a bad case of “Mountain Dew mouth.” Half his teeth had fallen out, the other half were black, brown and misshapen.

And they ignore the fact that millions of college-educated voters prefer Trump.

Wine and cheese Liberals in Manhattan are full of tut-tut-tut when they think of people who oppose Hillary. “Those peasants! Why do we even let them vote??”

If Trump can keep the globalist GOPe types at arms length and keep Pence in a bottle he will be ok. If Trump gets in bed with Establishment hacks he will lose, big time.

Could this guy be any more bigoted? Does he feel that “White trash Americans” should not be able to vote? How does he feel about “Black trash Americans”?

Watters world is entertaining but sad. Not one person knew any picture he held up, i.e. carter, Reagan, bush etc. And they can vote. They all would vote for bieber.

This country is so screwed. The future is dim.

Two points:

1) Yes, he feel that “White trash Americans” should not be able to vote.
2) He feels that you should be arrested for even mentioning the concept of “Black trash Americans”.

White voters without a college degree have favored Republicans for some time

And black high school dropouts and gang bangers favor democrats - in near unanimous proportions, and have for some time. In fact, if you polled any prison, among the murderers, the rapists and the gang bangers, hardly a single one would support any republican.

This is a condescending review of a book that is not condescending at all. It’s honest and thoughtful, even loving toward people who were often not particularly lovable. Well worth a read. Sorry this is what the Post did with it.

Democrats have spent the last several decades ridiculing and ignoring white working class Americans. Now that their presidential candidate is a real lemon and in big trouble they’ve “rediscovered” these voters who for many years were the backbone of their party. That small crowd Hillary and Kaine had turnout for them today in Pennsylvania will be commonplace for that ticket throughout the Rust Belt. Working class Americans will not be in their corner. Their votes will overwhelmingly go to Trump and help him win the election.

If there was a list of the newspapers in this country that employ “white trash” as would-be journalists, the New York Post would top the list, followed closely by the New York Times and the Washington Post. Scum, writing for the edification of other scum.

Just read this guy’s bio...

I’m from the hills of East Tennessee...Raised on a working farm tending Angus/Hereford crosses and raising Burley Tobacco...

Having said that, I see I am better educated with my Masters than this special little Yalie...

I am better educated in both books and common sense and manners...
