Did that Trump supporter look like your husband’s depiction IRL? LOL!

Honestly, I just noticed the branding. Hilarious. He doesn’t drink so he just told me he made it up. He said it comes with a signed Toby Keith bandana and a complimentary truck bed flag pole kit, lol.

No, that guy was younger, around my age — late 30s early 40s?

Lol. Yeah, I figured he made it up. You do know about Toby Keith’s racist ass, don’t you? That’s why your husband is associating him with Trump supporters. At least I’m assuming that’s the joke association.

Well, I don’t listen to country music. But honestly, I’m probably the wrong person to ask because I hate rednecks as much as I do Donald Trump and anything else he’s associated with. I mean, the camo, the lifted trucks with gun stickers on the back, the fake patriotism, and the deep fried bigotry wrapped in “family values”…. Um, it’s a no from me.

So when it comes to Toby Keith? I don’t know if he was racist. But if he wasn’t, he did a fantastic job marketing to people who are. I mean, dots aren’t hard to connect, so connect them. Those who cannot connect the dots, you’re either ignoring them, or you’re part of the picture.

Am I being biased? Yep, 100%. But I also have a very strong, unapologetic bias about those people. I don’t pretend to be neutral because I hate redneck culture for what it celebrates and excuses. As far as what my hubby meant, he just connected the dots. It’s not exactly a puzzle when you know what you’re looking at. Know what I mean?

That said, those people can sing and talk in all the coded language they want — flags, freedom, “values”, the whole script. They’re not fooling me. I know exactly what I’m looking at.

I agree. The only people who like being around rednecks are rednecks. It’s not just you that can’t stand those mofos.
