The Partisan Divide on Issues

To support Trump is to support a tyrant and oppose democracy. Wyoming is beyond the pale of any kind of decency or fairness. Wyoming voters just cannot be reached. What we've got here is failure to communicate. So, they need to "get it", and get defeated, and if they rebel to slap them down hard and their guns confiscated.

Just who comprises the elites in Wyoming if not the old-line GOP?  Look at the Cheneys as prime examples.  They, along with others of their ilk, are rich and powerful, and more inmportant, owners of "the means of production".  In Wyoming, that's fossil fuels and ranching.

Now,look at the blue collar types.  They are righly angry, but they have decided that the elies aren't properly attentive to the GOP shibboleths of God, guns and gays, along with anyone not native to the state.  Thes are the issues more important to them than assuming actual power in the traditional sense.  Will this degrade into low-level chaos?  Perhaps.

It will not benfit the few Democrats, though ... and they know it.
