Actually, I think I’m in that category too. For a very specific reason.

When D is in power, they attempt to cooperate with R, who spends their time trying to undermine every positive thing D attempts to do.

This results in a short-term downturn in the economy.

When R is in power, they steamroll over D where they can, and cooperate with them when they must. This results in a stable economy. They also tend to give handouts to their voting base.

In the long term, the R strategy will destroy the country, but over 4 years it can produce a more predictable economy that appears prosperous to the people that tend to fill out these polls.

There’s one issue though: that “keep the country prosperous” bit — the country would have to be prospering for this question to even be applicable.
