It's an environment issue for them, their belief system and past experiences shape their decisions. The DNC had opportunities for real change and did not take them, and that feeds into the establishment/ "drain the swamp" rhetoric. Calling people stupid isn't going to help anything, they are heavily misinformed and tuned out living in a busy world. I don't give them a full pass here, but if we're going to change anything we need to figure out how to communicate with this segment and recognize their grievances.

Nah. They got themselves into that information bubble because it validated and made them feel ok with their misogyny, their xenophobia, their general bigotry. If you watch just a little Fox, Infowars, Rogan and decide, "hey, this is good stuff and deserving of my attention", you weren't a good person to begin with.
