People who voted for Clinton in 2016 but are intending to vote for Trump in 2020 what made you change your mind?

Neither parties primary concern is the country nor progressing, their main concern is keeping their donors happy and trying to get Re-elected.

This is fundamentally dishonest. Only the Democrats are suggesting for accepting millions of poor people (Biden suggests 2 million immediately with more in the future). In addition to the millions of illegal immigrants entering the country, who the Democrats promise free healthcare, education, a slew of benefits. They then have hundreds of thousands of anchor babies to prevent them from being deported.

Why would you seek this out when wages are already dropping (and have been for decades) and crime is increasing? The country isn't rich: it's 20 trillion in debt. Automation will wipe out even more jobs in multiple sectors. The middle class is failing. Higher education is becoming a joke. Americans don't want that. The Europeans that did similar actions with regards to immigration are now regretting it, far before the problems will truly show themselves.

It's the number one reason why Trump was elected and will be re-elected. The idea you can massively expand the welfare state while also accepting a massive chunk of poor people who don't share the same language and culture is downright silly. They are incompatible ideas. Unless, of course, those people will vote one way because they are promised greater wealth, taken by those who can't afford to give it. Becoming like Venezuela isn't "progress".

And when the only defense is "ur racist bigot" and "you're uncaring you hate poor people" then yeah, people are going to be pissed off and not care when a figure like Trump pisses others off.

Sure, Trump isn't doing everything he can to gut big business (which would actually also hurt the middle class by erasing jobs), but the alternative is far worse. And those who've lived long enough and who've seen enough history know it. And are forced to vote Trump.
