Obama-Trump voters and Romney-Clinton voters have very few actual policy preferences and decide who to vote for purely based on vibes.
I was really hoping for a conversation on basically why it appears that the same dynamic is being sold for decades. Why did Alabama go Republican when Missouri and Arkansas eventually went Democrat again? Why did Missouri go Republican when Ohio eventually went Democrat again? Why isn't Minnesota or Michigan staying Democratic when Ohio and Iowa are going Republican?
It can't be the same set of voters even though it feels like there are still many Democrats in reddening areas that are stubborn but something happens that makes them finally give in to peer pressure even though they had resisted for decades.
