        I thought the best evidence is that Obama->Trump voters are very racist. (they might also dislike NAFTA, and maybe without Clinton on the ballot there would be fewer cross pressures and some will come back).

        I still think the best analogy to 2016 is 1980. There was a lot of social change under Jimmy Carter, the blue-collar midwest revolted, but snapped halfway back by 1984 and all the way back by 1988.

        It's not just NAFTA. The Clintons are almost universally hated outside the coast because they're associated with a gigantic, hilariously encompassing conspiracy theory that they're basically the world-cabal bent on destroying humanity.

        You're being generous to think it was NAFTA and not her vagina.

        Bingo! My mother at one point considered voting for Trump because of NAFTA.

        I think a lot of them did vote against Hillary, but it was really about racialized economics: white blue-collar workers losing ground, Democrats leaving labor issues in gutter combined with Republicans dog-whistling-for-votes strategy
