“Trump’s America is deadly!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the Tim Walz and Peggy Flanagan’s Minnesota is the part that is rioting, burning, looting, shedding businesses<\/a> and jobs<\/a>, boarding up, moving to the burbs or Wisconsin or the Greater or Lesser Dakota<\/a>, buggering off, hitting the dusty trail for freer and safer horizons. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alondra Cano’s Minnesota is the part that can’t run itself even in good times without massive transfers of wealth from the parts of the state that work (for now)<\/a>, the Republican parts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
