People sure have been saying that a lot, and at first I believed it. However I'm becoming increasingly convinced that this isn't the case. These people do have grievances, sure, but I doubt they could actually even articulate most of these grievances, much less carefully consider solutions. The uneducated are famously easy to manipulate, and Trump just figured out how to manipulate them better than the GOP could. Same goes for the Brexiters vs the Tories. These people vote against their own interests because they don't know any better, not because they're making rational political decisions.
