Far-Left Professor Gets Fact Checked on “Rural White Rage”
The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 3:
5:05pm- Last month, while appearing on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, University of Maryland Professor Thomas Schaller discussed his book and claimed that white rural voters are “racist, xenophobic, anti-immigrant, anti-gay” and pose a “threat” to the country. In response to these claims, Nicholas F. Jacobs—a political scientist at Colby College—rebutted Schaller’s findings. Jacobs writes: “I’m an academic who studies rural Americans and lives in rural Maine. My job and passion is to pore over reams of data, including some of the largest surveys of rural voters ever conducted. Sitting on my computer are detailed responses from over 25,000 rural voters that I have conducted over the last decade and used to publish a range of peer-reviewed and widely cited research. And I’ve done it all largely to make sense of why rural voters are continually drawn to the Republican Party. But the thing about rage—I’ve never found it.” You can read the Jacobs’s full article here: https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2024/04/05/white-rural-rage-myth-00150395
