It’s not about policies. It’s about rural, white America resenting the “coastal elites”, “Hollywood” and “intellectuals” for making them feel inferior and irrelevant. Trump in office allows them to throw a big middle finger at those who they resent. That is the long and short of it.Winning the popular vote by 5M to boot. Americans spoke pretty loudly that Dems need to look at their policies. They aren’t in line with American priorities.
