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). :)
I was listening to a radio show when the host talked about he and his wife took a trip out of Houston to a small town north of there. He was amazed. No masking, very clean and very friendly. He had been in Houston for so long, he didn’t know what the rest of Texas was like. In my county, we have zero democrats in any position of power.
Indiana is the same. If you don’t live in Indianapolis, Bloomington, or Lafayette (where the universities are), it’s pretty red, though I would say some pockets of purple the closer to the blue cities you are. When the mask mandates started, there were a lot of farming communities that said to hell with that. It was very pleasant to be around folks that “disobeyed” the orders.

Sorry, but not a chance that is happening. It would be great, though.
