Because they are too stupid to realize they are voting against their own best interests. We’ll see how they feel when AFFH is reinstated and “affordable housing” comes right into their precious neighborhoods.
Funny, I thought we were supposed to vote for what's best for this nation, not what's best for me.
I live in a town that puts low income housing all over the place so it would not be a problem for anybody in my here. Well perhaps those old communities that had sundown laws and were restricted to white Christians. Some never even changed those restrictions even though they are illegal.
Looking at school demographics, many of the schools in Harris county have 50-60% economically disadvantaged.

Only thing is, if you’re asserting the idiocy claim, then you can’t make yourself the exception.
So which is it?
No it's not, because they're just as insecure if not more so than an average American. By casting vote for Biden they make themselves feel better. There's not much at stake for them....at this point. If down the road he proves to be a tax and spend Democrat, I'm sure they'll reconsider.
But, when it comes to real meat and potatoes, like paying more taxes, they're voting against that as I've already said.
What, you think just because a household makes $150k to $200k a year they're somehow immune to social influences? That basic human psychology doesn't apply to them?
At least white women aren't stuck on "stupid" and always voting for democrats .
Oh...so white women are just intermittently stupid, huh?
Okay. I’m not gonna argue. It ain’t my fight.

Lol...I’m from Scottsdale, Arizona dude. $150k to 200k in household income ain’t all that impressive. Naturally, they don’t have immunity from the social zeitgeist. You’d need a helluva lot more money than that to be impervious to your surroundings.
So you’re not telling me anything that I don’t know.
In my well-off suburban neighborhood bubble there's definitely been more push to put "equality" at the forefront. In my little area, blacks represent maybe half a percent of all households, yet I've seen at least half a dozen BLM signs.
Heheheh.....me too. Except I've seen a lot more than six BLM signs. If you ask me, they should first put "Black Lives Exist" signs in front of their houses. We should first establish that black people actually exist, before we claim that they matter. Because living in that neighborhood, you would never know it.
Most suburbs are economically center right and socially liberal these days. You can be against police brutality and also be well off. Biden is also a center right candidate.
You sound bitter.
Ah, it sounds like you're one of those residents of a lily-white suburb who has a Black Lives Matter sign in front of your house. In which case, I'm curious: if you like black people so much, why don't you live near any black people?
I can only speak to my suburb and those nearby. IMHO, the populations now include more & more "woke", clueless soccer moms and their gelded husbands who think it's "cool" to vote for the odious Democrats. 20 years ago, reliably Republican, as the older residents died off, they have been replaced by these self righteous twits.
They are of the generation that was indoctrinated by the vile teachers' unions these past 20 + years.
It's only going to get worse.
