Your solution essentially boils down to trying to con them.

Not at all. I agree with you. This is why Sanders was so popular in these areas, despite being branded a socialist.
This is what I was talking about previously. The reasons Republicans do well with a many of these folks is because they're willing to at least speak to the problems plaguing many of these communities. The problem is, because the Republicans are the only ones willing to speak to them, they also get to control much of the narratives surrounding them.
