If the democratic party paid a price for ignoring rural democrats (which is hard to believe), those democrats who did not vote for their party because they felt ignored will suffer an even bigger price. Four years of a Trump government will be a disaster for them. Sadly, they along with the rest of the country, will pay dearly for electing a psychopath as our leader.
