People of West Virginia vote against their self-interest because the GOP wealthy construct a culture war of fear demonizing people that overcomes the commonsense stance of Democrats to the uneducated in order to broaden their reach. Its pretty pathetic and an indictment of the intelligence levels in this nation.You are certainly free to support that. Trump is indeed a horrible person but the reason the rich continue to thrive is people like you won't hold the politicians they vote for accountable for their failures.
I think BOTH are horrible choices. You display another problem. The idea that you must support one or the other. You do not.
I live in WV. For decades WV was solid Democrat. Why? Because they supported the unions and the workers. Joe Manchin was still elected as Senator as a (D) in WV even after it went red because of his solid support for miners.
Hillary came into the state telling the miners she was going to end their jobs but there would be government programs for them. Miners make a good living (even though it's a lousy way to do so). Well, they used to make a good living.
They didn't want to be put on "government programs". Now in the big picture WV is indeed small potato's but just an example.
WV has went from solid blue to super solid red in a very short amount of time. (sadly the Republican's are easily even worse) but the people weren't going to support anyone pulling their jobs out from under them.
