White Rural Rage in Florida

Thank you for the podcast continuing to expose the truth. My husband and I commonly refer to ourselves as a couple tiny blue dots bobbing in a deep red rural sea. It’s so unfortunate that we are really now starting to experience the prejudice against us. We are both retired and live comfortably in a beautiful home we love for nearly 20 years. I was very involved with our small community with my past job and also worked for several years at the local County Office so I was very well known (and I believe was respected) by many leaders. So…. When the 2020 election came around we were obviously inundated with Trump signs everywhere, I had enough and posted my Biden signs proudly. They didn’t forget! Our “latest” example of our prejudice is we reached out to a local A/C company that I knew and used many times before with the previous owner for an estimate for a new system, they came out to do the inspection the day we called and were told we would get an estimate in a day or so. We were impressed with their prompt response. We did the normal small talk about this and that- they now realize who we are. After over a week my husband called and we were told again a couple days. It’s now been over 3 weeks. We’re now going out to the next town for any future estimates. This is just one example of many. We really don’t want to move., we really love our Trump loving neighbor next door. Really. What a shame. We pray this will all go away when Trump loses again but highly doubt it. Thank you again.

Thanks for the sanity

Loved this podcast when Charlie hosted it and Tim Miller does not disappoint as his successor. Great guests and great conversations.
