Rural Americans are a threat to our democracy.

Well, I certainly hope so.  Maybe they will get us back to a Republic.

The irony of a liberal African-American political commentator calling for the disenfranchisement of a minority population group appears to be lost on MSNBC’s Joy Ann Reid. Reid labeled rural Americans “the core threat to our Democracy” and called for the abolition of the electoral college to limit their ability to influence elections and government, “This is the core threat to our democracy. 

The rural minority — the people @JYSexton just wrote a long thread about — have and will continue to have disproportionate power over the urban majority.” And, “That (ending gerrymandering) and the abolition of the Electoral College would be a start.”

  3. Rural America a threat? Really. How so? Ms liberal African-American commentator ought to be reminded of where the food she eats comes from (produced) and how it gets to her plate. Folks in her social circle I would hazard a guess don't have farming skills or know how to drive an 18 wheeler. 3 days. Rural Americans are "the basket of Deplorables" Hillary the evil spoke of with such open contempt.

    I would be willing to make a bet that she is very angry over Hillary the evil, despite her all out best efforts to rig the election, lost on an epic scale. There seems to be a consistent pattern here: calls for the abolition of the Electoral College when there candidate loses the election. Democracy is a form of mob rule. Liberals are all for mob rule so long as they get to be the elite few, who control the mob. Liberals are like two years old; they throw a temper tantrum when an adult tells them "No". The more a Liberal calls for the abolition of the Electoral College, the greater the appreciation I have for it and the wisdom of our Founding Fathers for including it.

    Brock, they will NEVER give us our Republic back. It will have to be taken back by force. They are not going to compromise. They have made it clear, they consider any one who disagrees with them to be sub human. Winter is coming.

  4. Food....Food as weapon....hmmm.
    Perhaps the Urbanites want to come fight for it ? (Good luck!)
    Maybe they will just eat each other if we hold back the food.
    Just a thought.

  5. Give these people a finger and they feel entitled to the whole hand. Thanks, LBJ for the gift that keeps on giving.

    2. A saying of mine: It does not matter if you have your heart in the right place, if(when) you have your head up your ass.

      I'm all for helping the poor, BUT you're not helping the poor when your program how ever well intentioned rewards people for their bad behavior. If you continue to increase welfare benefits and programs for women who have children out of wedlock, guess what women will continue to have even more children out of wedlock. And at the same time, those same programs punish women who do get married. There is no reward for men to get married and to the hard thing of holding down a job, and provide for their families when the welfare state encourages men to act like irresponsible teenagers (the thug/gangsta culture). I'd put LBJ on the list of worst presidents ever. If LBJ did any good for this country I can not think of what it was. Midas touch in reverse.

      My father was a country doctor in Virginia and was involved in sterilization of those women who were on the dole and continually had more and more children.

  6. This ignorant, angry black woman is evidently clueless to the fact that the House (assumed to be demo due to large numbers of blacks in the cities)would have a distinct majority. The Senate, is by design, meant to balance small states and larger states. It does not guarantee rural majorities. Sheer imbecility...

  7. I thank rural Pennsylvania for voting Trump. Philly and its suburbs love Killery.

  8. Demographics are destiny.

    She and those like her will, unless there is major shift in birth rates and/or immigration policies, will rule our children. if that likely prospect does not cause you to loose sleep and motivate you to action your dead, morally and/or physically.

    Y'all have a nice day.

    She wouldn't know what a Democracy (Representative Republic)is if it bit her on her big fat butt.
