I'm not going to say that it's the only reason that this happened. But illegal immigration is a massive problem for the US for Canada and for many countries. And in many of these countries where illegal immigrants are entering and staying you're seeing this pretty dramatic shift to right wing support and governments being voted in.
Even at a municipal level we see this happening and it comes up often in public forums and interactions with residents. It's not always illegal immigration it's just foreigners, and by foreigners I mean just foreign to that specific community. It could be Urban moving into rural locations or people legally coming into smaller insular communities. But it doesn't matter it's just a microcosm of the mass of problem that these people are have with immigration. And until that sorted out, the Democrats have no chance. And we're going to see this same issue becoming the major voting issue in Canada moving forward.
Humans like many other animals are hardwired to want to follow a strongman. And as much as we hate him a significant portion of people see Trump as a strongman. For right or wrong he's the better choice to lead them when they are seeing so many strangers around them.
