Wispy white clouds blew across the sky. Amber Thiessen was gassing up her new pickup truck at a filling station on the edge of town, a Republican stronghold just like the overwhelming majority of the state. She voted for President Trump and thinks Mr. Biden and other Democrats like Hillary Clinton are “snakes in the grass.”“A lot of people, when this happened for Trump in 2016, they started saying ‘not my president,’” she said. But she has no plans to say Mr. Biden isn’t her president. Because she knows that once he is sworn in, he will be, regardless of whether she likes it.
