To promote their book, they recently made\u200d an appearance on MSNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Morning Joe,&#8221; and let me tell you, it was a segment for the ages.<\/p>\n<p>Words cannot adequately describe \u2062the sheer delusion and dishonesty that permeated\u2063 every single word of this\u200d interview. \u2062These so-called\u200d &#8220;journalists&#8221; are so out of touch with reality that\u200c they wouldn&#8217;t recognize the truth if it slapped\u200d them in the \u200bface. Their arrogance knows no bounds.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Not only do these writers claim to be experts on Middle America, but they also have the audacity to project their\u200c own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-true-threat-to-democracy-isnt-white-americans-its-the-democrat-party-2\/\" title=\"The real 'democracy threat' isn't white Americans, but the Democrat Party\">nasty political impulses<\/a> onto \u200bwhite, rural folks. It&#8217;s like the pot calling the kettle black, except the pot is actually white, racist,\u2064 conspiratorial, anti-democratic, and\u200c violent.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>During the interview, Schaller boldly\u200b stated, &#8220;We\u200b lay out \u2062the four-fold, interconnected threat that white, rural voters \u2062pose to the\u200d country.&#8221; According to him, these \u200dvoters are guilty\u200c of every imaginable -ist, -anti, and -phobic sentiment, including racism, xenophobia, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/pro-migration-activists-accelerate-hate-campaign-vs-immigration-reformers\/\" title=\"Pro-Migration Activists Accelerate 'Hate' Campaign Vs. Immigration Reformers\">anti-immigrant views<\/a>, and homophobia. They are also\u2064 labeled \u2064as mega\u2064 conspiracy theorists, Christian nationalists, and\u200c anti-democratic \u2064individuals \u2064who condone violence as a means of discourse.<\/p>\n<p>It would be laughable if it \u2064weren&#8217;t so \u200dinsulting. Not\u2063 only\u2063 does \u2063this \u200cslander good-hearted individuals in flyover country, but it also underestimates the intelligence \u200bof\u200c every viewer. We can see right through the Democrats&#8217; \u200cdirty tricks and their attempt to vilify white Americans who simply disagree\u200d with their opinions. It&#8217;s nothing more than a projection of their\u200c own shortcomings.<\/p>\n<p>Now, let&#8217;s turn the tables and examine how Democrats \u200bmeasure up to \u200ctheir \u2064own &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/msnbc-hosts-blast-white-rural-voters-as-conspiracy-driven-threats-to-democracy\/\" title=\"MSNBC hosts criticize 'conspiracy-driven' white rural voters as a 'democracy threat\">white rural \u2063rage<\/a>&#8221; rubric.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Racist, Xenophobic, Anti-Immigrant<\/h2>\n<p>Democrats\u200d no longer bother hiding their racism. From President Joe Biden&#8217;s condescending remarks about black voters to their discriminatory practices in hiring and education, Democrats consistently display racial animus. Their hypocrisy is astounding.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore,\u2062 their xenophobia is evident in their hatred\u200c of \u200cIsrael and their selective support for \u2063immigrants. They champion open borders until those immigrants reach their own communities.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Conspiratorial<\/h2>\n<p>Schaller claims that white, rural \u2063Americans are the most conspiratorial\u200d group, citing QAnon support, election denialism, Covid denialism, and Obama\u2064 birtherism. However, \u200bit is Democrats who have embraced debunked conspiracy theories like the Russia-collusion hoax\u200d and the \u200dBrett Kavanaugh gang rape allegations. Their track \u200crecord is far from clean.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s not\u2063 forget how Democrats contested every lost election outcome leading up\u200c to 2020, only \u2063to conveniently forget their \u2062own actions when it comes to questioning election security.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Anti-Democratic<\/h2>\n<p>According to Schaller, white, rural \u2064voters don&#8217;t believe in an independent press or free speech. They are more likely to support a president with unchecked power. \u2064However, it is Democrats who are\u200b working hand in hand\u200d with Big Tech and \u200ccorporations to censor dissenting opinions and trample on First Amendment \u200brights.<\/p>\n<p>Recent actions by Biden&#8217;s administration, such as \u2063charging investigative journalists and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/states-push-to-rein-in-big-tech-as-federal-gears-grind-slow\/\" title=\"States Push to Rein in Big Tech as Federal Gears Grind Slow\">suppressing conservative voices<\/a>, clearly demonstrate their \u2062disdain \u200bfor freedom of the\u2064 press \u200dand \u2062democratic principles.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Political Violence\u200b Over Civil Discourse<\/h2>\n<p>Contrary to popular belief, it is\u200c not \u2064Trump supporters who engage in acts of violence. Recent events, \u200dsuch as \u200cthe self-immolation in front of the\u2063 Israeli Embassy and the widespread riots in cities \u2064like Minneapolis\u2064 and \u2064Portland, were not perpetrated by rural white Americans. The truth \u200dis, leftist extremists are responsible for much of \u2063the violence we see today.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s \u200dtime to debunk the wildly false information spread by Schaller and Waldman. Their propaganda is nothing \u2062more \u2063than a desperate attempt to push their own agenda. Don&#8217;t \u2063be fooled by their tactics.\u2062 We must rely on our own critical thinking and reject their baseless claims.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> How\u200d do Democrats show their disdain for religious freedom through their \u200bpolicies and actions<\/h2>\n<p><span>  Support for Palestinians. They turn a blind eye to the terrorist\u2062 actions of Hamas and ignore \u200bthe threat\u2062 that radical Islamic \u200cextremism \u2062poses to the world. Their anti-immigrant views\u2063 are also transparent in their push for \u200bopen borders and disregard for \u200dthe rule of law.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Mega\u2064 Conspiracy Theorists<\/h2>\n<p>Democrats have shown\u2064 time and \u200ctime \u2062again that\u200b they \u2064are willing to subscribe to any conspiracy theory that fits their narrative. From the debunked \u2064Russian collusion hoax to the belief that\u200c the 2016 election was stolen, they are \u200dquick to embrace wild and baseless\u2063 claims. They have created \u2064a culture of paranoia and mistrust, undermining the fabric of our democracy.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Christian Nationalists<\/h2>\n<p>The\u2063 left loves to paint conservatives as religious extremists, but \u200dit is the \u200cDemocrats who \u200dare guilty of pushing their own brand of religious extremism. They mock and belittle people of faith, seeking to marginalize them in the public square. Their support for policies that go against the values and teachings of Christianity is\u2062 evidence of their \u200bdisdain for religious freedom.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Anti-Democratic Individuals Who Condone Violence<\/h2>\n<p>Perhaps the most \u200begregious accusation made by Schaller and Waldman is that white rural voters condone \u200dviolence. Yet, it is the\u2062 Democrats who have been complicit in the violence that has plagued our cities. Their support \u200cfor defunding the police and their failure to condemn\u2063 riots and looting during the summer of 2020 \u200cspeaks volumes.\u2063 They \u2062have a blatant disregard for law and order and an apparent willingness to stifle free speech \u200bthrough intimidation and cancel culture.<\/p>\n<p>In \u2064conclusion, the claims made by Schaller and Waldman in their book <em>White Rural Rage<\/em> \u200b are \u2062not only baseless \u200cbut also \u200ddeeply insulting. They fail to recognize the complexity and diversity of thought within white rural America, instead choosing\u200d to label them with stereotypes and false accusations. It is the Democrats who more accurately fit \u200ctheir own rubric of racism, xenophobia, conspiracy theorizing, religious extremism,\u2064 and anti-democratic tendencies. It is time for a true examination of the political landscape and a move away from divisive rhetoric.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Columnists Tom Schaller and Paul Waldman recently launched their book &#8220;White Rural Rage,&#8221; exploring the support for Donald Trump among flyover Americans.
