Liberals make up more of the consumer class than conservatives. That highly marketable strata of people that have disposable income tend to be affluent, college educated liberals. Its why they keep winning the culture war and it drives conservatives insane.
It also helps that the conservatives constantly shoot themselves in their foot by defining their own reality. They decide for example that people don’t like “the gays” but really it’s only the right wing thugs that really have an opinion. The moderate conservatives aren’t bothered one way or the other. So now they’re trying to sell policies to subjugate a group of people that probably only about quarter of their membership really care about.
It is really obvious with Trump, they just invent entire new things to be mad about, like this Tylenol thing. That just came out of thin air because they couldn’t think of anything else to distract people with, but even their own supporters don’t really care about it because until about 3 weeks ago it wasn’t a claim that anyone was making.
