Tell it like it is. Those are tough words for a politician. I view it as a challenge, that’s why I stayed out of Pennsylvania when I said the working class there are bitter and don’t like people who are not like them.
It’s interesting, but no one has disagreed with what I said, which means I said something true. People just don’t like to know they’re bitter and frustrated when they are. Reminders hurt.
Too bad. A little tough love never hurt anyone.
Pennsylvania, get over it. Move on. Those jobs are not coming back. Your political leaders sold you away to a life of slavery and misery. Cling to your guns and religion and hatreds of all people non-white, but the rest of the world is moving on.
That’s not deriding the religious and cultural values of working class people in Pennsylvania. It’s telling it like it is. Deal with it, people.
