Perhaps I'm being optimistic, but it seems that Americans are rejecting Trump's views.
I dunno...if they stopped trying to provoke shit in liberal cities and rally in areas more sympathetic to...say, the Klan...they might draw better numbers.
But generally, yeah, I think you're right.
And you've got a good point too. Of course, "racists rally in Shitsplat, Mississippi" might not garner quite the same headlines.
I can understand why they're marching in more liberal places; they're trying to send the message that "we're everywhere". Never mind the fact that they have to fly people in from 2000 miles only to be outnumbered by locals. But hey, whether they're buying tickets from Delta or tiki torches from Walmart, they're expending resources not only in service to a lost cause ™ but also to their own impoverishment.
