…….and it doesn’t surprise me that a white nationalist was elected.

Enid may look like just a small town with merely the propensity of having way, way too many fast food places, but there’s always been something more: An undercurrent of real white nationalism.

Guns and God. That’s how it is there. Just another red town in a red state.

I haven’t lived there since 2002, but I would go back a couple times a year when my parents were still alive. And the first thing I noticed, since 2016, tfg flags abound. Signs every-freaking-where! Yikes.

I am glad that the once newly-elected and now truly-rejected city council member is gone. Miracles never cease.

Sincerely,
