Many people in big cities are among the least capable of taking care of themselves. If there are food shortages, then these people will be in deep trouble.
The dweeb that wrote this screed needs to get out more.

Think it would be safe to say that 47 states out of 50 are exactly this. The cities dominated the statewide offices and run the table on federal elections.
And what I find really interesting is how many people still have their heads in the sand about this reality not turning Georgia. Sure Georgia will maintain a Republican legislature forever, probably, but there are about 11 or 12 counties, Blue Counties, that have growing populations. Soon they just might be able to run the table on statewide offices.
Imagine the rump blue Oregon/Portland without the red counties to use the way a parasite uses a host. If it works in Oregon, it will sweep the nation.
Hell, West Virginia didn't even switch states, they made themselves a whole new state because they did not want to be controlled by Richmond.
I get SC political ads on youtube. Rat face, Trump backstabber Nancy Mace (SC,1) runs a lot ads.
I live here. This is an apt description of what we rural Deplorables are up against, versus the rabid Socialists that populate our urban areas.
It’s really no different than MN, MI, IL...any Midwest/Flyover state you care to name.
However - I guarantee that Wisconsin will re-elect Senator Ron Johnson and our new Governor will be Tim Michels (R, WI). :)
States need electoral colleges, too.
The big cities determine virtually all statewide offices. Rural folk have no voice.
Wisconsin is a particularly good candidate to flip and make a reliable red state. Milwaukee simply isn’t that big. Its a much more rural and small town dominated state than Michigan or Pennsylvania.
Once Michels is elected governor, Wisconsin can pass some real election integrity laws with teeth to prevent a repeat of 2020 ever happening again. The Republicans control both houses of the Wisconsin legislature.
The same goes for Michigan and Pennsylvania. Both are just a governor away from real election integrity laws. Of the two, I think Tudor Dixon has a better shot to get elected than Doug Mastriano since she’s running against Gestapo Gretchen who is quite unpopular.
It’s been pointed out that red states have the higher murder rates, but every state has at least a few blue cities where violent crime rates are 3 to 4 times higher than in the red rural areas (which even deep blue states have).
Apparently, how to run it into the ground as Tulsa is rife with pot addicts living in the streets, vagrants begging on every corner, fags/drag queens marching, etc.
Ditto Oklahoma City. And our low cost of housing is attracting trash from kalifornia. Yep. It's inevitable.
The same in neighboring Minnesota. Virtually every TV ad for Democrat candidates screams that their GOP opponent is anti abortion. What else can the Democrats run on? Certainly they can’t say the economy is great, those millions of illegals are a plus for the country or that high gas prices are just a bump in the road to a green utopia.
