By\u00a0DENALI CULVER\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0MADDOX GREENE<\/strong><\/p>\n

AIKEN, S.C.<\/strong> \u2013 Grumpy\u2019s Sports Bar boasts beer \u201cas cold as your Ex\u2019s heart,\u201d but inside on a weekday afternoon it was full of friendly patrons with plenty to say about the state\u2019s upcoming Democratic presidential primary.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wish they would go away,\u201d said Linda Carsia, who is more than ready for Saturday\u2019s South Carolina Democratic primary to be over. \u201cDemocrats are not like they used to be: they lie, it\u2019s well-known that they tear down and divide.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

That\u2019s a typical sentiment in this largely Republican town of 28,000, where 61.5% of residents supported President Trump in the 2016 election, according to the South Carolina Election Commission.<\/p>\n

Carsia\u2019s husband, Rick Carsia, doesn\u2019t even watch the news anymore, something the couple used to do several times a day.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we do watch the news, when anything with the Democrats comes on, I turn the channel because I’m sick of it,\u201d Rick Carsia said. \u201cIt\u2019s mudslinging, it\u2019s \u2018vote for me, this is what I can do for you.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019ve got all these people having to raise money and do their thing, and they end up fighting with each other,\u201d said Steve Price, a lifelong Republican and Grumpy\u2019s Sports Bar regular. \u201cBut they\u2019re all Democrats so it\u2019s like, c\u2019mon, you know? Why do ya gotta go over there and pick on your own guy? It just isn\u2019t right.\u201d<\/p>\n

There were few defenders of the Democratic presidential candidates, although Anita Padgett, general manager at New Moon Cafe, said she is an avid Pete Buttigieg supporter and volunteers with his campaign. And the road into town is lined with signs for Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, indicating that she also has supporters in this town that attracts lovers of horses and horse racing.<\/p>\n

Price and his best friend of 10 years, Laun Davis, debated the effects of political \u2018mudslinging\u2019 while watching monster trucks race on television.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo me, it\u2019s just a bunch of nuts who have fat heads,\u201d Price said between laughs.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s about right!\u201d Davis agreed, laughing along with his friend. Both men said they will cast ballots for President Trump in 2020.<\/p>\n

David Smith, another Grumpy’s patron with plans to support the president in the general election, is relying on President Trump\u2019s unpredictability to get things done.<\/p>\n

\u201cI recognize what he is,\u201d Smith said. \u201cI mean, he can be a scuzzball. When it comes to the politics side, I probably identify with him most.\u201d<\/p>\n

President Trump\u2019s lack of political background seemed to be the reason most Aiken citizens liked him so much.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just think he\u2019s not what they\u2019re used to so he\u2019s shaking things up and that\u2019s what\u2019s making a difference,\u201d said Gretchen Hatch-Heffner, who was sipping tea at her favorite rainbow table in New Moon Cafe. \u201cHe truly goes by his own road and they don\u2019t quite understand that, but I think Washington [D.C.] needed a little bit of that. New thought versus the same old same old.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hatch-Heffner formerly lived in Philadelphia, and since moving to this community in the western part of the state hasn\u2019t missed a single election, local or national.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know what\u2019s funny? Until I moved to Aiken 14 years ago, I couldn\u2019t have cared less. Moving here, to us this was a small town, so [it felt like] your vote actually counted.\u201d<\/p>\n

In Aiken, political debate is commonplace and can erupt as citizens go about their day doing tasks like stopping for gas. Edasha Key, an employee at a BP service station, said all it takes for a conversation to start is for customers to pass by a stack of local newspapers, the Aiken Standard.<\/p>\n

\"South<\/p>\n

\u201cIt gets to the point where customers start having conversations between themselves,\u201d Key said. \u201cOne feels one way and one feels the other way, but they just share their opinions. It doesn\u2019t get out of hand or anything like that. Everyone just states how they feel.\u201d<\/p>\n

Key seems to be one of the few in Aiken who remains undecided about how she\u2019ll be voting in the presidential election, but she does plan to vote and values the weight of her decision.<\/p>\n

\u201cPolitics, and whatever happens anywhere, affects the whole world, period,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

The South Carolina Democratic primary is Saturday and is open to all registered South Carolina voters.<\/p>\n
