Pennsylvania farmer who voted for Trump in 2016 to speak at DNC: "He conned me"

Oh stop. No one is talking about misogyny. And you clearly don't care enough about it to even learn how to actually spell it. But regardless of that, it doesn't change the fact that once you're elected to office people no longer see you as "one of us". I like AOC, but it doesn't change that fact.
As for farmers there are about 2.6 million. They face all kinds of problems. They are trampled on by mega corporations that place all kinds of insane demands on how they farm, or whether they can keep seeds, what machines and buildings they can use, whether they can repair their own machines, etc. It places huge financial burdens on them, requires them to take on huge amounts of debt, and increasingly bankrupts them. They have high suicide rates as well. They have a lot of problems that many people in cities could relate to and share their frustration over. It's ignorant to write them off.
They matter just like everyone else in this country. They're getting screwed just as much as anyone else in this country too.
