Working-class voters back Trump despite economic concerns in recent election

In the recent election, many working-class Americans voted for Donald Trump despite concerns about his character. A significant portion of voters expressed dissatisfaction with their financial situations, leading them to choose Trump over Kamala Harris, who they felt represented the status quo. An NBC exit poll revealed that 46% of voters felt worse off than four years ago, with 81% of that group voting for Trump. This reflects a broader trend where dissatisfaction with the economy drove voters to seek change, even if it meant returning to a controversial figure. Trump's re-election raises questions about the impact of his economic policies, which may worsen conditions for low-income families. Critics argue that his proposed tariffs could increase costs for these households, potentially deepening the economic struggles of those who supported him.
