This is why Trump's attacks on voting, especially in urban areas, appeals to so many of these people. Many of them just don't see people from cities as their equals and deserving of equal protection under the law. Many of them resent that urban areas tend to support Democratic candidates. It seems to me that a lot of these folks really don't care what kind of government they have, so long as they are left alone and helped by the government when they need help. They seem to resent any help being given to others who are unlike them.
