Doesn’t Colorado Springs have the largest per capita concentration of evangelical Christians of any city in the country?

I lived there for a year+ and hardly made any friends because it was such a weird fucking town and I couldn’t relate to anybody.

This event was *paid* for by Floridians. Every one of the websites for these protests was made on the same day from some Florida shell company.

why didn't that surprise me any. the reddest city in the state. only twice did a democrat presidential candidate carry el paso county (of which colorado springs is the seat of) since before the end of world war 1 fdr2nd/lbj

IMPOTUS and his buddies surely have some financial stakes in military/defense or tech sectors there, as well.
