‘So angry’: Chris Matthews says dealing
with rural Americans is like ‘fighting terrorism’

Original Article

Posted By: ladydawgfan, 12/26/2023 7:12:10 PM

MSNBC’s Chris Matthews said that dealing with angry rural Americans is similar to combating terrorism on “Morning Joe” Tuesday. Matthews highlighted the importance of anger in mobilizing voters during elections as he drew the analogy. He said rural Americans harbor a deep-seated anger toward liberal elites and then seemed to liken it to the sentiments of terrorists in Afghanistan and Iraq following the U.S. military presence there. “This is rural rage. They are so angry at the liberal establishment, the coastal elite, they look at people on television … ‘They don’t have to worry about us,’” Matthews stated.

The left throws around terms like terrorism and fascism until they are meaningless. Now good hard working American that disagree with the little poop AKA Chris Matthews, are terrorists. If he was any more stupid, he'd be in a home for morons.

Chris Matthews head is stuck so far up his butt that he is mistaking his own BS for the smell of manure from us country folks. It is self appointed liberal elites like Matthews that despise "the little people" and live in a kind of Hunger Games world. Matthews is Caesar Flickerman, Host of the Hunger Games; phony, in love with himself, and oblivious to what is really going on in the world.

What does rural/small-town America see in the elites of non-rural America? Rampant crime that goes unpunished. Policymakers who caused a border crisis of unprecedented proportions in this country. Tax-and-spend-and-spend-again politicians. Anti-law and order administrations. Antisemitism. Violence. Poor schools. The list goes on. But somehow rural/small-town America is full of terrorists. What a load of old horse manure!

He's right I do hate him and the costal elites. But I am not a terrorist and I do not think sending the army into every conflict is the answer to what ails us. But Israel is right to kick butt. I assume you are a multimillionaire so there aren't too many problems you can't handle. Most of us might not be as rich as you but believe me when I say most of us are not as dumb as you think we are. I'd like to see you live on $60,000 a year with FJB telling you that you are an idiot because you cannot realize how wonderful things are and while we are at it why don't we show him any love? Morning Joe is a nut job with a major screw lose. All these lefty elites/Hollywood types don't think there is a problem. A lot of money can stop a lot of problems in their tracks.

What I'd like to know is when Chrissie Matthews ever actually dealt with a 'Rural American'. I dunno, maybe he encountered a few when his wife (or his boyfriend) drug him out of the city to go 'antiquing' in some small town.

The putrid propagandist represents everything the commonsense rural American despises in the globalist government of the arrogant liberal elites. He actually pressed to learn why, and he's too stupid and self-unaware to understand. If Matthews was ever confronted by an actual terrorist, or even a thug from Antifa or BLM, he'd probably crap his panties.

Whatta surprise. The Left has already divided us by race, gender, religion, age, creed, privilege, disabilities, access to food, education, skin color, climate theory, sexual preference, and politics. Chrissie surfaces right on time to play the new rural/urban card, claiming those of us who live in wide open spaces can't possibly grasp the intellectual depth and sophistication of their smart city- dweller counterparts. Expect Hillary to show up adding there's an unfair pantsuit desert in Green Bay, WI. Yup. Divide and conquer. Nothing new.

Joe Biden- America’s Agent of Chaos 8 replies
Posted by ladydawgfan 1/1/2024 1:36:58 PM Post Reply
In 2020, the early Democratic primaries were disastrous for former Vice President Joe Biden. He lost the first few states and there was real concern that socialist U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) would become the party’s presidential nominee. At that point, a major party leader, U.S. Congressman James Clyburn (D-SC) stepped forward to single handedly save the Biden campaign and deliver the state of South Carolina to Joe Biden. His endorsement was powerful and effectively ended the nomination contest. After South Carolina’s victory, it was clear sailing for Biden toward the Democratic Party presidential nomination. Democrat voters were told that Biden was “solid,” a “moderate” and “reasonable.”

Kamala Harris likes to play pretend. Fortunately for her, there's no better performance of make-believe than the cultural charade that is Kwanzaa. And since it's politically advantageous to do so, Kamala the Chameleon purports to be a lifelong celebrant of Kwanzaa. Advertisement For years, Kamala has told tall tales of cherished age-old Kwanzaa traditions in the Harris household. She has repeatedly claimed to nostalgically recall fond childhood memories of multi-generational Kwanzaa celebrations led by "the elders"® sharing stories of yore and lighting candles on the "kinara," a knock-off menorah. (The first "kinara" was forged from a desecrated Jewish menorah, in which two openings were broken off to create a seven-ring candleholder.)

The counterattacks have come at the cost of tens of thousands of innocent Palestinian lives. Now, the coalition intends to expand the pressure campaign to all 50 states.

Assuming full attendance, the Republicans can only afford to lose two votes on any measure. GOP Rep.
