(1,921 posts)I live in West MI and the farmers here are overwhelmingly Repukes. THey love Trumpler and proudly fly his flag. Numbers back it up:
"America's most farming-dependent counties supported Trump by an average of 77.7% in the 2024 election. This was an increase in support from 2020 and occurred despite his first-term trade wars, which negatively affected many in the agricultural community"

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
