They probably feel like they're fucked either way and have nothing going for them. That makes it easier to side with the dude spouting hate. If I was that age I'd probably be in the same boat as them because being angry and hateful feels good and it took me a while to get that under control. I certainly didn't have any actual hope things would improve after this election but I did vote for Kamala because she at least wasn't spouting hateful shit. Not that it helped because I live in a dark red district. If there hadn't been an abortion amendment on the ballot I'd have probably skipped this one.

Anger doesn't reason.
