As someone who struggled as well to put myself in the mindset and having just finished reading Empire of Pain which documents the Sackler Family and Purdue's responsibility in the opioid epidemic.
It might be worth reading through it to view a mindset that has developed around pharmaceutical companies and doctors in places that were hit the hardest by the opioid epidemic such as mining towns, old industry towns and other rural areas that are predominately Republican.
They may vote Republican, but I think its fair to say that its likely not the image that first comes to your mind when talking about pro-business, well off Republicans.
