So why do some middle-class still vote Repub??

I had a very loud "discussion" with my cousin over Christmas
and she spouted all the usual talking points. As I logically
trampled all her points she started to interrupt and was totally
focused on winning her argument instead of trading data in order
to support her position.
Why is politics so emotional and subjective!

She can't see that she has been screwed by the Repubs and she is
part of the middle class even tho they have examples of how she and her husband have been treated unfairly at work.

Oh well, try again next year!!
