re: #419 HappyWarrior

I get him and I do think we should listen to rural America but rural America also shouldn’t get a pass for its faults either and get told that it’s “real America.” I’m not saying JD is doing that here but rural America’s got its faults that its advocates ignore. And I’m not saying urban America doesn’t but there’s a reason why Steve King has been successful in that district.

and tbh, the main reason why JD Scholten was so close was because King didn’t even bother to run a campaign until the weekend before the election.

I’m not faulting JD here, but there was a bit of luck in play that prevented the final result from being far worse.
