70-something rural voter I talked to this evening in the general store in the town of 50 people where I live:
"We shouldn't be sending money to all these people overseas who hate us, but it's ridiculous to cut staff at our park. It's the lifeblood of our community. You need more people, not less!"

Yes they voted but that doesn’t mean they thought this was what they would get
Honestly, the left would be better off if they did progressive policies anyways and hoped for the best. But they can’t because right wing centrists block everything.

You’re not wrong: Vance should’ve literally disappeared when Hillbilly Elegy was outed as fraudulent, a lot like Huckabee.
Maybe he thought that would be enough? There’s very little on Vance otherwise from him.
I feel like I should sign this as “an old gal in Ohio.“ I know about Yarvin in part because my Gen Z son tipped me off.
JD Vance is a damn fool if he thinks older Ohioans are stupid.
