I have made this comment before, but people vote with their guts on election day, not their brains. That's all fine and dandy as long as the people we are electing actually vote with their brains. It has become increasingly clear, though, that the elected officials are voting more with their guts and their party than they are with any sort of knowledge about the policy being discussed.

All of us haven't. Some of us still won't believe there is widespread voter fraud when no data supports that claim. Some still don't believe that Muslim immigrants from the Middle East are a serious threat to security.


But enough have moved away from evidence-based policy that the critical mass needed for Trump's election was reached.
