They live in gun country. As more young white males raised around firearms lose their jobs, lose loved ones to preventable deaths because of the absence of health care, and lose loved ones to increased crime and substance abuse due to the despair caused by the loss of life options for upward mobility, those responsible will be more likely to be targeted. In Blue areas they would be protested and roasted but in Red areas they cultivated a culture that they thought would target the people they scapegoated but their constituents aren't stupid. They know who sold them out.
