You're falling into the same bogus "voting based on self-interest" logic that leads Democrats to wonder why the WWC abandoned them.

Voting is not about muh issues, ffs. It's about symbols, narratives, and emotions.

It is, it is issues about your financial situation, your social or economic values, and the issues of your culture, and which party is closes to your culture.

Older people were much more democratic in WV, while younger people swung much more to the republicans, or when they started voting, they voted for the republicans
