It’s quite clear that post is from someone who watches Fox News nonstop so they get their marching orders to hate Seattle and Portland. Never mind that most people who live in these places are just normal folks going to work everyday. It’s the same people who hate California, forget that the majority of the whole country gets its fresh food from the state. And I would agree, it’s both sides, I just see the vitriol for hating whole swaths of this country and it’s residents seems to be a particularly popular thing in the Tucker Carlson fan base.
