Anyone have a link to the politifact article, for reference? Their search tool is not good.

I want to believe, but everybody lies.

They rated it as mostly true actually - https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2014/jul/29/facebook-posts/are-97-nations-100-poorest-counties-red-states/ and https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2014/mar/28/occupy-democrats/pro-democrat-group-says-9-10-poorest-states-are-re/ but you’ll notice they’re from 10 years ago… probably not much different, especially after our last president…
