Give It Up, GOP. Its over.

30. The only problem with all that: "IS the economy 'going to come back in all those

redneck little towns...'"?

I kinda doubt it. I keep thinking about the coal miner contingent. Coal is fading as a viable business. It's not coming back. Because the demand is no longer there. So what are all those coal miners gonna do? Especially since these same "advocates" they trust and have such faith in and voted for - still want to yank their affordable health care away. While sending them back down into the mines. Where they also want to yank most if not all of the workers' safety regulations and protections. Leaving them vulnerable to some really horrible and almost certainly fatal health problems like black lung disease. And keeping one industry on artificial life support when the demand has dropped and the customer base isn't what it used to be. So they're ALL on a dead-end road, ASIDE from mere health complications.

But these - I'm sorry but this is what they are: IDIOTS keep believing and keep supporting and keep voting.

It seems they want the unreality bubble. And if that's true, there may be no way to reach them. Hell, we tried to give them truth during the last campaign. They voted for the lies and the liar.

And now I have to struggle to remain compassionate and caring about them - when they shit in their own nest again and again and again. Because they're CHOOSING, ACTIVELY and DELIBERATELY, to shit in their own nest again and again and again. They CHOOSE to believe and accept and cheer for the lies and the liar. And all his nasty little liar friends and enablers, too.

My struggle is excruciatingly difficult these days. Damn near impossible, frankly.
