She was wrong to tar all roll voters with the same brush but there’s a large demographic i.e. hard-core Trump supporters who are cruel, stupid, amoral and unpatriotic. They are very dangerous.

Not what I'm talking about.
Take my state for instance, 7 million people, and 4.5 million live right in my metro area or 65% of the state, with another 1 million or 15% living in Greater Tucson. 80% of the state lives in Greater Phoenix or Greater Tucson
Or California, 40 million people, with 19 million in Greater LA, 9 million in the Bay Area, 2 million in Greater San Diego and 2 million in Greater Sacramento, or 32 million out of the 40 million, 80% of the state
So a person in NYC can dictate what kind of laws a farm in Iowa has to abide by, when it's a completely different way of life and settings? No thank you! There is a reason why the electoral college vote exists. It's there to protect the states that don't have the coastal areas or beautiful mountains to bring in large vasts of tourist. Flyover states must be protected by the big cities, just as civil rights are needed to protect the blacks from all the whites in this country. If you cannot understand this logic, then there is no help for you.
They only support things like free speech and free press when it benefits them and they want to restrict opposing viewpoints from getting the same treatment.
Sounds like just like democrats to me.........
You serious? Conservatives fight tooth and nail for the right for businesses to fire somebody for being gay yet throw a huge fit when A&E cancels Duck Dynasty because of Phil Robertson's homophobia. Or how about the fact that businesses being able to deny service to LGBT individuals is a huge deal in rural America yet they want laws to prevent Target from allowing transgender customers to use the bathroom of the gender in which they identify? Furthermore, you want fundamentalist Christianity to be endorsed and promoted by the state, but as soon as something like the Buddhist Temple wants to erect a monument you throw a big fit. You can't have it both ways!
