1. They either won't remember or won't care

It's all about their feelings, and they feel like they won and you-know-who* lost. That's all that matters. They will gladly lose their health care coverage, lower their own wages, watch their roads and schools continue to deteriorate, give up various freedoms for the illusion of security, and more, just so long as they keep feeling like winners.

*"You-know-who" is a moving target, and will be fitted over the villains of the week: Black people (as if their lives matter), poors, liberals, Muslims, nasty women, etc.
