Amy Klobuchar represents (as a representative in Senate, not in policy) most of my family. But to watch CNN grill her and talk shit about “fly over country” was gross. And absolutely validates that east coast shills on CNN absolutely hate us in the Midwest.

NOTE- I do not agree with her on almost all of her policies. But to dismiss her because of where she’s from is offensive. That’s not how we do it here.
I take comfort knowing that it's our happiness that they hate the most.
Just a note because I’m sure many young Trump supporters do not know- Minnesota is the most engaged political state. We ROUTINELY have the highest voter turnout. We flip from Republican to Democrat leadership regularly. It has always been in good nature and very friendly. We’ve been the most prosperous state forever. Guess when that started to change? When Obama fast tracked thousands of Somalian immigrants into our state.
I routinely put down Minnesota's politics when I talk to my family there. Whether it's about being the only state that went for Mondale in Reagan's '84 landslide, or Jesse Ventura, or Al Franken, or Keith Ellison, or Ilhan Omar. Lately, it's been about the Minneapolis mayor and the U of M students who dressed up as Antifa and attacked several Trump rally goers, stole their hats, and had a hat barbecue. Still waiting to hear from them about any arrests from that, but not holding my breath. They usually fall back on their passive-aggressive defense mechanism of Minnesota Nice instead of accepting the dumb political things they've done.
Nothing directed at you, just a story about my family there.
Why would anyone watch CNN in the first place?
