and con-leaning voters on left and right responded to every one of the revelations and Trump betrayals of all their supposedly cherished values, each one of which should have killed his chances, with silence for a few days while they found ways to deal with them and then recovery to, if anything, even stronger commitment to electing him, all narratives permanently buried.
Massive media narrations of Russians surrounding Trump and possible treason, proofs of sexual predation and depravity, decades of cheating and otherwise defrauding thousands of people he did business with, outright criminal activities including connecctions with organized crimes, attacks on our veterans/"our boys", calling Second Corinthians "two Corinthians," and so on and on and on -- NONE of those narratives, powerfully created by Trump himself and furthered by press frenzy and our media, changed their course.
And we now know that they were mainly driven by anger at way too much social change way too fast -- massive racism and misogyny -- greatly exacerbated by many anxieties over personal futures, due to other giant changes, many could no longer visualize beyond being very dark and frightening.
Not by Hillary "underperforming." For most on the right and left, some mixture of HillHate, the need to battle "liberal fascism" or "liberal corporatism," and/or the "narrative" of the desperate importance of getting conservative justices on SCOTUS were just excuses manufactured and adopted to justify abandoning all principles.
