30. The Republicans are very good at manipulating uninformed, issue driven voters.

The problem with America is that there are a lot of people who vote their emotions, and are easily lead on hot button issues.
Muslims and Jews alike were both manipulated by the Republicans, and they did just what they were "guided" to do...help elect Trump.
This also worked well with the immigration issue, and inflation.
Unfortunately, most of these voters never wake up enough to realize how they have been used.
This is how a nation comes to embrace dictatorship. Use fear and anger to demonize your opponents, and just watch the people flock to your side.
