                        We were not reserves like the NG, although there are CG reserve members that drill on weekends and two weeks a year the same as the NG. CG is an active duty military branch but under the Department of Homeland Security rather than DOD. Same pay scale, benefits and rank structure (mirrors the Navy)

                        There were numerous Coast Guard members and Cutters deployed to the Gulf. I spent most of my time running search and rescue boats and doing maritime law enforcement with a tour in Alaska and one in Puerto Rico. I spent some time in Haiti, too. As I moved up the rating chain I ended up being Officer in Charge of three Small Boat Stations and one 87' Patrol Boat. I finished my career as a Command Master Chief in Mobile Al.

                        • Trump's popularity in Rural America, which turned out in near-record numbers for him in November, is slipping. For a variety of reasons (Staff turnover, too much travel, no Wall, healthcare, corruption, etc). He gets strong marks for economy and fighting ISIS.

                          Back in January/February his approval in Rural America was at 55/39%. Right now it's 47/47%. Per Reuters.

                            • Other polls (a dozen), conducted since 9/21, have shown Trump anywhere from 42/53% (his best) to 33/61% (his worst).

                              Average is -17

                              • The rural america thing strikes me as somewhat meaningless. The real barometer is DJT vs Prog Candidate. I'm not sure that's changed much.
