Because America is famous for having highly knowledgeable voters who follow politics closely... Yeah right.

Many people wouldn't be able to explain even a single policy or elaborate on why they voted for who they did beyond "vibes". Plenty of people did not know what they were actually voting for, and recent polling reflects that fact.

People are stupid and some are shitty, but in the end they are still just working people and deserve security.
