Just a very short — and reluctantly delivered — shout out to Michael Moore. He called this. I’m a rural midwesterner by origin who moved to the big city, and only returned for holidays, weddings, and funerals. My paycheck wouldn’t mark me as a coastal elite, but I clearly bought into the polls and media narrative that HRC was going to pull this off.
My hat off to the man from Flint. He understood the frustration and anger of those in the Heartland. We out here on the coasts totally missed it.
