Sarah Jones joins Matt and Sam to discuss the myth of “Trump Country” and the pitfalls of reporting on rural America, and to address the most important question of all: is Donald Trump the Antichrist? (Answer: Probably not.) Sarah’s essay, “Scapegoat Country,” appears in this month’s special issue of Dissent on “Left Paths in Rural America.”
