white men and white women that support republicans no matter what will not be broken of voting against their own interest until they suffer the real consequences of their actions something like the great depression and even then it might not be enough.

They have been conditioned for generations to believe that the abortion issue is important for them and that anyone who supports a woman's right to choice is a baby killer. However it apparently has occurred them that they support a party that wants to take healthcare away from children which will lead to the death of children, but suffering first.

Beyond the abortion issue,being homophobes and racist there really is no reason for most of them to be supporting republicans. Pretty sure the majority of them are not wealthy.
