Kind of like liberals in 1980 who couldn’t figure out how Reagan won since all their friends voted for Carter.

Exactly; it reminds me of the NY Times drama (or was it food) critic Pauline Kael’s remark in 1980 that she just couldn’t understand how Reagan won “because just everyone I know voted for Carter”. They live in their own (small) universe and we ain’t part of it, no regrets on my part.

As Pauline Kael once wrote, disbelieving the outcome of the Nixon-McGovern election of 1972, “Nixon can’t have won; no one I know voted for him.”
