I feel dirty.

I'm in Eau Claire now, Hillary county but that was the first time I visited a Trump county all year. No stops as I said. I even had to see this giant pro Trump road sign. It was horrifying.

Serious question: If you were to fly from one Clinton county to another, would you refuse to look out the window at the ground while the plane was flying over Trump counties?

I feel very offended in every county that didn't vote for my candidate, Gary Johnson. Awful culture.

More importantly, if you found out that the pilot and copilot of an airplane you were flying on voted Trump, would you jump?

Only into a Clinton county in a Clinton state



Seriously, BRTD, this is quite literally the definition of "liberal bubble." You're unwilling to expose yourself to the other side's viewpoint - but instead of ignoring conservative, you base yourself off arbitrary geographical lines that mean nearly nothing. Every day I thank myself Trump is in power and not Cruz, McConnell, Ryan, Pence, or any similar jackass. You didn't do this for Romney, why bother with Trump? It's childish idiocy, and this is coming from a child idiot.

Wait a minute, you're actually in a Trump state? Not to mention a state that elected Ron Johnson and Scott Walker multiple times? And to think you call yourself a liberal... You should be ashamed, I'm not sure how you sleep at night.

I can't get to either Albany or NYC without going through Trump country. Thank God Dutchess barely went for Clinton, or I could not even get to Kingston for department store shopping, and would be trapped in Columbia County. Columbia County has no department stores except the sad case of Kohls. BRTD would have a nervous breakdown if he went across the river into Greene County, which is still festooned everywhere with Trump signs. They love their President almost as much as their guns.

Dan and I play this game as we drive through the various little townships (NY calls them towns), guessing how they voted. We have gotten pretty good at picking up the vibe. That is what happens when politics has turned mostly cultural. Towns steeped in history with tight zoning, and many historic houses, are Clinton country. Tracts with rather tasteless McMansions are all Trump, like in some areas east of Poughkeepsie (county seat of Dutchess) at the edge of the NYC metro zone at the end of the metro line.

Assuming the answer is yes, I wish to let you know that literally 100% of pilots and copilots voted for Trump.

What if it's one of the counties named Clinton County that voted for Trump?  Would the universe implode if BRTD jumped off a plane into one of them?

I feel you, man. I saved my company money by literally just sleeping in a Trump county two nights this quarter, and it was absolutely horrifying. Would not recommend. Terrible experience. Lumpy bed, clutter. Terrible. I've avoid it outside those ~18 hours.

I ordered a smoothie in a Trump County (Stark) and the lady who made it had to put more ice in it after blending it the first time. This turned it from great to merely good. Tongue

Can I be forgiven for traveling through Trump counties if I went through them on the way to the Women's March?
