In Vietnam Our Troops Did Not Refuse To Fire Back Because We Did Not Want To Be Like The VC/NVA.

12. A lot of them voted the way they did just to burn the system down.

I've listened to them - four of them, here in California, without asking anything, juat let them have their say.
Behind all that churchy, teabagger crap, it boiled down to the fact that they voted for Trump because it was a big fuck you to American politics, laws, regulations, taxes, and everything - their feelings were basically that no one was listening to them.
All these policies are being made without them, for their own good, whether they wanted that "own good" or not. No one in power seemed to take the time to pat them on the hand and throw them a bone, so they can feel in charge of something in their lives.
And of course, politics chases money, so it seemed to the that "both parties are the same..."
That's where the Trump voters who weren't induced by racism or misogyny or greed come from. And realistically, neither political party can change the way these voters want them to change, unless they focus significantly more of their outreach into the very local and obscure local governance positions races rather than state or national races.
