No need to define redneck. The countries ratcheting up tariffs in response
to Trump's trade war are targeting the red states that are the core of
Trump's support. Crops in the midwest, HD in WI, PA, KS, bourbon in KY.
Very basic and smart. And we know Trump's a f*** moron, but when enough
of his voters start suffering, he'll do what he always does, cave in, while
declaring that he really won.
