Honest question here.  What exactly do you believe Trump is going to do for all of the folks in the rural areas?

Do you realize Trump is a guy who grew up in the biggest city in the country, had wealthy parents, graduated from an Ivy League school, and has spent the past 50 years doing almost nothing but being an extreme capitalist exploiting the "little guy" at every opportunity, mostly by operating in big cities?

I mean seriously, I don't hate Trump like some others do, but let's be real here.  His resume couldn't possibly be worse for people who live in rural areas.

Are you hoping he is going to stimulate economic growth in Podunk, Nebraska by building a few casinos and a 40 story luxury apartment high rise?

I'm expecting either a spectacular success or a spectacular failure. Either way it should be entertaining.

I'm not crazy about some of his appointments, but I don't have an issue in principle with appointing "rich" people to cabinet posts. The vast majority of cabinet appointments are "rich". There's always going to be the potential for a conflict of interest. There is a long history of cabinet members (and politicians) leveraging their position for financial gain.

These are some real stupid motherfuckers you are talking to here. In both 2000 and 2004 they looked at a rich aristocrat, whose dad was head of the CIA and eventually became president, who summered in Martha's Vineyard every year and owned a major league baseball team and thought "now here's a real down to Earth fella, just like me that I could have a beer with."
