My unfortunate observation is the majority of people who voted for Trump don't pay any attention to current events and basically get their news via rumor. But if you want the true culprit, it's the 15 million Democrats that voted last time but not this time. The votes for Trump actually went down compared to last time.

Yea that's what they're saying isn't it. 15 million people vanished out of thin air. Interesting

Well 114 million people who could have voted this year didn't. It's a combination of apathy and laziness. We could be like Australia and mandate the vote.

Republicans won't allow it. They win when people don't vote, it's a fact. They now dominate the legislative, so you can forget about it.

The real solution is to raise the interest of people in politics. Look at the south.
