Summary
Despite broken promises like the return of factory jobs, Donald Trump continues to gain support in Ohio’s rust belt, including Youngstown, a former Democratic stronghold.
Voters feel abandoned by both parties but resonate with Trump’s anti-establishment rhetoric and perceived authenticity.
Economic decline, disillusionment with political elites, and anger over issues like trade deals and student debt forgiveness fuel their frustration.
Many voters believe Trump’s willingness to “tear down the system” aligns with their grievances, even as doubts remain about his solutions.
Their bitterness reflects decades of industrial decline and neglect.
Stupid people voting against their own best interests isn’t news.
If there’d been one black sheep in that image, they could have put a caption over a white one saying, clearly he doesn’t mean me, he must mean someone else, while looking at the black sheep.
That’s already part of what the original comic says.
I don’t think so, what i said brings out the racism more.
Edir: you could do it without a caption as well, just looking at the black sheep.
It, objectively, is part of the original comic. But thinks on your notes about how to make it more bigoted and terrible. Glad to know where your head is.
Well, I disagree. I don’t think there’s (edit: blatant or objective) racist intent in it, just ignorance or being an idiot.
Edit: and my change makes it objectively about it, and less about ignorance.
Denial is a nasty monster. All my best hopes that you can one day defeat it and thereby arrive at the truth.
