      Spoiler, they won’t. Most treat politics as a sports team. Elections are all about their team winning. And if they guy they elected is terrible, they convince themselves that the other guy was worse,

      The best you can hope for is them giving up on voting for a cycle or two. Then they’re right back in it, voting for team colors regardless of real world consequences.

      The oddballs who actually care are the ones you hear from most, the assholes who like the cruelty.

      They’ll have completely forgotten this by the next elections, and will be surprised all over again that nothing ever goes their way.
