What do you mean by left behind? I keep hearing this on the news about the rural vote and how they feel disenfranchised. What exactly do they want? Who took what away from them? Why is now not as great as before? A lot of people say the economy, but wages are finally growing again, unemployment is down, and the economy is finally going in a positive direction after being wrecked for about 15 years. The median income for Trump voters is $72,000. I'm a big city college educated liberal and I will probably never have an income that high as long as I live. Don't tell me it's the economy. It's xenophobia, plain and simple.
