Donald Trump May 'Turn Off the Internet' if Elected, Former Staffer Says

Regarding your edit: This might be the reason, why people tend to vote against their interests. To weed out competition. For instance, people would happily vote against free school lunch - even if the option of free school lunch would benefit them - just because some different ethnical and/or political group would not receive that benefit either.

I see a very similar behavior in German politics right now: The right-wing party (AfD) is gaining popularity and the conservative party (CDU) is going to lose voters towards them. In order to appeal to voters they want to (very oversimplified) alter social welfare benefits to the worse and keep minimum wage from rising, all while claiming that immigration (among other things) is the issue. But those who are voting for the right wing party and the conservative party as well are the ones who clearly would benefit from better social welfare an a higher minimum wage. These people would rather decline any improvements regarding social welfare and minimum wage, so that others (immigrants for example) would not benefit from them either.

Edit: typos

More than 50% of white women voted for Trump? Do you have a source for this?!

I'm genuinely asking here, because that's gross as fuck if true. I'm a white woman. I couldn't imagine voting for that POS, however, my mother is suuuuuuper into the "Bible" so I know she did. My parents are unfortunately super fans of his. I didn't think that there were that many like her though.

Edit: I was so appalled I looked myself. I did find a bunch of stuff supporting it like truthout andthe guardian, which is absolutely fucking infuriating to me.

I did see that when it came to women with college, more did vote for Clinton than Trump, but it wasn't enough to outweigh when combined with those who lacked a college education.

FFS. This stat actually massively upsets me.
