    Yup, same. Not all were in that age range, but I knew some in that range. I also knew people much older, but very low-info, who voted for him because he had that game show and he would “shake things up” and was an “outsider” and “not a politician” and other stupid reasons. I also knew a guy in his 30s who was scared into voting for the first time (for donnie) because he was convinced Hillary was going to “take his guns”. Also, this guy does not actually OWN guns, but wants to be sure he can get them…

    It’s sad that elections are probably decided at the margins, often by people making absolutely terrible decisions based on very little actual information.
