22. Why - thank you, sugar.

Having grown up in Mi'ssippi, I'm familiar with that demographic.

They'd rather vote for "one of us" - even if it's a grifting pig who banks in the Caymans and doesn't give a flying fig for them - than "some n***** lover."

Not all of them, mind you - but, sadly, most.

It is what it is.
