       As a product of northern Appalachian area of NY that I have said for decades is culturally related to KY. Has always been a higher poverty area, the neoliberals cleaned out the good union jobs that at one time supported a large middle-class. They've seen their income and status decline. Many more now seem to commute 65-80 miles to jobs. This left a void in their lives that the White Nationalist leaning, ChristoFascist Fundamentalist churches to fill. Along comes TRUMP.https://robertreich.substack.com/p/what-will-trumps-conviction-mean?utm_source=substack&publication_id=365422&post_id=145181055&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&utm_campaign=email-share&triggerShare=true&isFreemail=true&r=dzsu&triedRedirect=true

       Bottom line of the whole article is that #Capitalism was always going to end in some form of #Fascism, or a bloody uprising that may or may not prevail on the side of reason/socialism . Inequality, as Prof Reich has pointed out for yrs, has reached the level that historically leads to chaotic collapse.The rural neighbors aren't  morons ala "Deliverance", so they must be able to see what Trump is. The level of nihilism born of lost dreams. But the #FASCIST propagandists give them the stories.

       Some jobs are starting to trickle into the are due to the #Biden supported bills. Not fast enough to change many minds by Nov, IMO.
