5. They are the tip of the iceberg - and this is why

There are many Repukes out there who are refusing to vote for Chump again. They don't want him back in the White House and they know Chump is bad for the country, but most of them are afraid to say it out loud. This couple - the Langes - not only said it out loud but they announced it on a TV ad that's shown in their area. It took a lot of guts to do that!

Most people in red counties don't have that kind of courage. The Langes were getting hateful and nasty messages on social media and anonymous phone calls. But those could have come from anywhere. Even from Russia, or Russian bots.

When nice people started coming into their farm store, thanking them and buying their products - those weren't anonymous bots. They were friends, neighbors and people who live close by. It's a great thing that they are supporting the Langes, and perhaps it's going to snowball into more people deciding to vote for Harris & Walz.
