Your observation on the digital divide is so prescient. It was never quite clear why Trump's FCC backed off of rural broadband expansion so aggressively, as it hurt "the base." Costs for corporations was the obvious answer, but consider that keeping the base out of touch with reality only helps to cement power. The Republican establishment has really gone "whole hog" on being heinous fucks.
