Rural Americans are mad--and they gave Democrats a reckoning
Fox News
America’s political elite need to ask themselves why rural voters showed up to support a new Trump presidency with such overwhelming force.
Democrats Joe Biden and Kamala Harris had their chance. They did nothing to support the interests of rural America. They spent billions in taxpayer dollars on "climate-smart" grants to support their green new scheme but those dollars were never felt in most rural communities. Kip Tom is a farmer from Leesburg, Indiana, and was ambassador to the United Nations for Food and Agriculture during the Trump administration.
With that growth, many in rural communities worried that their values would change – that the liberal ideals espoused by many of the urban elite would infiltrate our communities. But the election showed this was not the case. Donald Trump held on to his margins in rural communities – in many areas, even exceeding them.
