There are whole rural towns of poor white. I grew up in one.

There’s racism. There’s misogyny. There’s whatever hate word you want to apply to the particular focus maga has on trans. But overlaying all of it is a class war. If you’re rich enough, it doesn’t matter how gay or black you are, you get a pass.

MAGA is shoving out women right now, except their pregnant secretary. I amazed Patel has lasted this long, but, historically, brown men tend to garner more respect than women.
