the coastal regions &#8212; and that\u2019s it.&nbsp; Over the vast majority of acreage, the vast margin land in this country, they have no presence.&nbsp; If you look at county by county, if you look at state by state, district by district, no matter how you look, they are just invisible, other than on the coasts.&nbsp;<\/line><\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2016\/11\/21\/out_of_touch_democrats_grapple_with_devastating_defeat_and_it_s_gonna_get_ugly\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"eZObject_130977\" class=\"img_middle\" align=\"middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/TrumpMandate-Trump.jpg\"\/><\/a>And the stuff that makes America work and makes America great is all in the middle, in a sense.&nbsp;
