But... Trump is the archetypical New York slick that rural America surely despises. So what gives?
Cognitive dissonance
Deregulation, making it easier for them to drive their barely running cars and trucks that drink oil faster than gas. Cutting social programs so that their taxes do not go to anything woke, only to subsidizing corporations and billionaires profits. Small government and tons of tariffs to make them commie pay for ruining American industry!
You underestimate how easy that is to do in a city.
