Political analysts have talked about how ignorance, racism, sexism, nationalism, Islamophobia, economic disenfranchisement and the decline of the middle class contributed to the popularity of Mr. Trump in rural America. But this misses the deeper cultural factors that shape the thinking of the conservatives who live here.
This article just confirms that ignorance, racism, etc plus religious bigotry determines the vote in rural America.
J.C. Watts spouting some horseshit about what he thinks liberals think doesn't help a bit.

The deeper cultural factor is religious extremism.
