Right from the start they say a commonality between Obama-Trump voters and Drop-Off Voters is that they are struggling financially, and see their income as not keeping up with the cost of living.

And right their the entire report goes into myopic overdrive.

I guarantee if they convened a focus group of Bush-Clinton voters or new voters for Clinton they would say exactly the same thing.

In fact, I bet every voter in every category would say the same thing.

(well, okay, except for the wealthy, but that's not what I'm talking about... and as we have seen from other studies, they mostly voted for trump anyway)

They need to have focus-groups of Hillary voters and discover where the crossover is between the two groups, and then target that breach in the future.

I had a ton more written for this rant but deleted it. It wasn't nice. I'll just sum up by saying I'm sick of our side continually digging the hole that Hillary failed... SHE did not! Her campaign did not. This country did. Three major minority groups got together and voted in a block that stopped her... barely... Racists, Idiots, and The 1%

And don't forget the Russians.
