Yeah I know because decades of Dems policies have made they’re base smarter and more educated
Dems use to the party of the poor.
Hell, Obama message against Romney was that this Rich man doesn’t care about your well being or jobs
Why is Ohio no longer a swing state???

Yeah, my parents live there too. Yellow Springs Ohio. Very hippy liberal town. Woman walk around with no bras and armpits hair and shyt.
The local bar has a secret community Bong for smoking weed that only regulars know about. which is low key
but it's a unique experience. I can see some like Lenny Kravits loving it there.

Sounds like a skit
My dad side of the family all live or from Cleveland, East Cleveland and Richmond Heights
The inner city has become trash as well as East Cleveland and the city of Euclid as well
the outskirts of Cleveland is nice, Solon, twinsburg, orange, etc.. nice ass places
Cleveland has a shytty mayor who doesn’t seem to care about the crime and poverty
city is rank number 1 as poorest city in the country where the black median is under 25k
I like Columbus tho... college town with a nice a little of diversity

Somewhat true, Ohio only became hardcore gop since trump came along. Obama and Clinton carried Ohio during their presidential runs.

Yeah all the time, he knows me by name. Hangs out with my cousin all the time. Apparently my grandparents were friends with his parents back in the day. One of them used to teach at Antioch college in town.
Those are definite hotspots for Chicago pplI got family that recently moved from Chicago to Phoenix.

Politics is an EXCHANGE!!!
Ohio is blue and Columbus Dayton Cleveland Cincinnati however every other county is red
The state has been gerrymandered to hell also. No way the Reps should have as many House seats as they do.

Yeah, look at a map John Boehners 8th Congressional District. Probably don't need to explain who lives in the center section.
It's already been said, but the demographics are likely changing. Once you get industry that leaves the area, more affluent and educated people usually follow the jobs to other places out of state.
What you are generally left with is shrinking metro cities, a more rural and uneducated populace, less jobs, and more poverty.
Those blue collar manufacturing jobs in Rust Belt cities are gone, and they aren't coming back. Most of them have been lose to automation and export overseas.
These Republicans craft themselves as the religion and working people's party, but they also dog whistle racism and classism. They also fall back on Christian founded beliefs such as being pro-life, opposing gay marriage, and the cutting of entitlement programs that many of their supporters think only benefit minorities.
Most people default to blaming someone else for their problems instead of looking in the mirror at themselves and citing their own incompetence, lack of education, and lack of knowledge for their predicament.
Republicans play on that perfectly to rural Whites that need some Black, illegal immigrant, Muslim, or poor minority to blame for their problems.
The progressives and liberals are painted as socialist that want take away their most basic rights even though America thrives on socialist programs like public education, public hospitals, social security, banks backed by the FDIC (Feds), state highways and interstates, etc which are ALL socialist programs by nature. Feed them an enemy they think they're better than and also paint the perceived enemy as part of their problem and you can easily manipulate them.

The Corp Dems also played a role in this. Clinton and the Dems are on the hook for NAFTA. Bush Sr. couldn't get NAFTA passed, was blocked by a Dem Senate so the GOP gets away with no blame again smh.
It's crazy that the GOP can present themselves as being for the blue collar worker when they are anti-union, for bullshyt like "right to work" and all kinds of protections for corporations.
