I would have felt much better if they’ve sent him a resounding no this time, like “OK, you had four years and I don’t know what I was thinking but no. Just NO!” My guess is that many, maybe even most, of those people were lying about that, maybe even to themselves. Had it been someone other than Hillary running against Trump they would have come up with a different excuse as to why they were voting against that person. ---
