I live in an upper middle class neighborhood of professional people, and my electoral district went for Trump by one vote. So half of my neighbors voted for him.
Makes it very hard for me to look at people. But also makes me realize it isn't just rural, or evangelicals, or the uneducated.
We really need to dig deep and figure out how we got to this place as a nation. We need to acknowledge that it isn't just meth heads and klansmen.

I'm serious. They must know, at some level, that they are the scum of the earth. Maybe it has to do with one of their ilk being prezident of 'Murica.
