The votes that can turn the tide in this election are those in the rust belt. Manufacturing is the key word that gets their attention. I believe that's why. All other reasons are secondary. It was about the financial crisis in 2008 and Bain Capital in 2012 which ended up affecting manufacturing jobs.
- trhway 10y agoyep, politicians say what their voters like to hear (and do what their donors want to be done :). For example California politicians don't talk about manufacturing, instead they talk education, environment/climate change, security, minorities rights, some talk agriculture, etc... some even talk UFO/aliens (if you didn't read the official CA booklet listing candidates and their statements for this year race for the US Senate Barbara Boxer's seat you missed a lot of fun :)
