Probably true, particularly now that the party is so entwined with Donny Trump.
Yeah, I wanted to know what Andi sees day to day in Georgia. I have to admit, I have not spent much time in the South, but when I have the people have been great. Kind, generous, and extremely friendly. There's a reason Southern hospitality is famous.
Well, there was one occasion when I was down there and I pulled into a parking space and got out of the car and a woman ran up to me all excited and said "Are you from Alabama? I love Alabama and people from Alabama!" and I looked at the plate on the car and said "No ma'am, I am from Massachusetts, this is a rental."
She looked at me disappointed and said "Oh." and walked away. Instant rejection. I wanted to say "Massachusetts is nice!" but she was pretty quick making her escape.
