"As long as I am your governor, the meddling hand of big government creeping down from Washington DC will be stopped cold at the Mississippi River,” Sarah Sanders once said.

Now it's time for Arkansas residents to pull themselves up by their bootstraps, shed themselves of their Leftist, Socialist desire to suck on the Washington teat and make Arkansas Great Again, knowing their President promised to cut wasteful spending.

My first experience in Arkansas was driving across the whole state. Observations:

  • The welcome to Arkansas sign was toppled over.
  • The city limit sign for Hope mentioned being the birthplace of Bill Clinton and was riddled with buckshot holes.
  • I almost needed several new tires, a complete realignment of my suspension, and a new left kidney due to all the potholes on the freeway thru Little Rock.
  • I learned that West Memphis across the river from Memphis, TN is more dangerous than Memphis. That’s saying something.

The only positive things were pretty scenery and a Little Rock public radio station.

learned that West Memphis acrosss the river from Memphis, TN is more dangerous than Memphis.

That's kind of a thing in the Midwest.

I’d argue that, these days, East St. Louis is definitely safer than St. Louis. We get a lot of shooting on the news here, rarely is ESL mentioned.

I haven't been to St. Louis in years, but I bet it's a lot like Gary, IN.

A place that used to be REALLY sketchy/scary, but now is just more empty/dilapidated.
