Trump: Everybody is loving data centers. You don't want them right next to a community, or something. But there's a lot of space in Ohio https://t.co/NK7L2bG2nE

The people in those “spaces” are the same people Trump is always touting as the number of counties he won. People vote, not land. Those people don’t want to be near those data centers, either. But Trump thinks land votes, and nobody lives outside the cities of America (how could they? He can’t imagine it.).

I know that almost all of his electoral support in Texas comes from outside the major cities. And they don’t want data centers near them, either. They are making that quite clear to Abbott, who is running behind Hinojosa in part because of his support for data centers.

There’s that, too. People in rural areas feel like they’re being screwed by people with money; lots and lots of money.

They’re right.
