I was trying to find out what & if anyone could come up with answers of their own, based on their own experience...…..not what everyone else is talking about. And if they had been influenced away from voting for Hillary based on whatever factors they allowed to influence them...……..or did they make up their own mind without outside interference.
In a nutshell to see just how all the hype is real or BS
OK, imagine you're a Rust Belt democrat (the ones that voted against democrats up and down ticket in 2016). It's 2016, mid-election year. You're sitting at the dinner table with your wife. The news is on the TV in the background just before the meal is served. The talking head on the news announces
"President Obama (head of the democratic party) has just issued a mandate to public schools to allow boys to use the girls' showers, restrooms and bathrooms at public schools under threat of punishment for failing to adhere to the mandate".
You look over at your two young daughters and your wife (who will be next in all public restrooms, showers, etc.) and say
"oh HELL NO!". Your wife, ashen with shock is one of the 20% of women who statistically were sexually assaulted in her lifetime by a deranged man entering her private space. And if she isn't, she knows five other women who were.
It really doesn't have to get much more complicated than that, does it? There couldn't be a more visceral issue for moderate thinking families. None. I mean we can play this game of "who dunnit" charades until the cows come home, but we all know this was the poison arrow in 2016.
