If you look at election results you can see in red states that not everyone votes Republican. In some red states the Republicans have a somewhat narrow lead. A lot of those Democrat voters still like country music in those states. If Brooks was seeking to be a unifying force then that's not a bad thing. Certainly better than what the Dixie Chicks did.Ok fair enough. Now, would you consider that the "sold out crowd" could be conservative? Don't notice a lot of brothers there do ya? No. Stereotypes are solidly based but not monolithic. You aren't going to find Antifa, BLM types at a Garth Brooks concert. Nor any other Communist/Socislist/Liberal Democrat.
