Unfortunately, I think a lot of those angry women are leaning conservative. The anti-vax movement was strong amongst females and virtually that entire demographic is voting Trump. On top of that a large number of young women are now leaning religious, that demographic is voting Trump. People overall may be becoming more secular, but a larger segment of young people, who would otherwise have voted democratic, are becoming extremely religious.

I think things are just too crappy economically for young people. Young people also don't generally vote. So to get them to the polls, they have to feel really passionate. I see a generally tired, fed up and apathetic demographic.

Trump is going to take this as essentially a protest vote. It speaks more about the Democrats inabilities than Trump's abilities. Hopefully, this is a wake up call, and the Democrats purge their ranks. The Democrats should be able to destroy a non-sensical convicted felon, but they can't.
