Well, bear in mind that they are still a very patriarchal group (or at least moreso than the general population), so a lot of Trump’s misogyny, for example, wouldn’t necessarily bother them. As Suprise_Puma mentioned, they’ve been in a weird spot for a while, in terms of maintaining their orthodoxy while still living cheek-to-jowl with the English. Pennsylvania can be quite rural, but not “we can live on our farms and almost never see anyone else” rural.
