The Atlantic does Itself Well Again Regarding Today’s Republican Revolt

THE GREAT REPUBLICAN REVOLUTION

I am founder,  now still working at age 81, of and now  co-owner of a small surviving  garden landscape company in the Twin City area.   There are ten of us full time workers, all guys, who work together to keep the company healthy, almost wealthy enough, and wise.

No American female alive can offer, much less match  the countless physical,  artistic, and mechanic skills, knowledge,  and power of curiosity and ability to solve problems  this small company’s  labor force requires in hours and  performance  creating the most beautiful landscape garden settings in our area in season  and  plowing snow and conquering ice in winter, and maintaining  serviceable our  armada  of  trucks of all sizes, cars, tractors, plows, mowers, power shears,  and countless other mechanical items needed to be successful in the services we perform to stay alive.

It is a world far, far away from those conservative urban cement and concrete conservative pundit folks, and the world of the black racist, feminist, atheist, and Marxist Obama crowd.

We do not practice politics in our business.   Most of our clients are bureaucrat Obamalings….not Republicans.   The have more money and less interested in working outdoors where losers spend their efforts earning a dollar….. They are good people, nevertheless,  traditional Minnesota Democrats who vote by yesteryear’s standards.

A year ago this past summer I, out of curiosity,  I did ask a number of the younger, the 25-33 age,  who they were voting for in the fall election…It turned out none of the seven had ever voted.   Nor had their wives.  And did not intend to.   (I did bawl them out for failing to perform their country’s primary duty.)

Within the past month out of male  drug of curiosity I asked if any among them had been watching the Republican debates?   expecting them to pooh-pooh the thought.

All nine  were not only for Donald Trump,  they actually had been watching the debates.    Admiringly the shouted  “He’s our guy we’ve been waiting for!”  as if they had struck gold…and continued laughing  while some reenacted  Trumpisms so perfectly,  professional mimics couldn’t match.    It was all real.   Politics with Trump had turned them on.

Leftists and many Republicans in Washington and New York and their pollsters  don’t seem to know these guys even exist.
