I don't know what they are conflicted about, they get what they voted for.

There's no conflict at all. Having their home foreclosed and watching their family starve in the streets is just the price they gotta pay for keeping single-digit numbers of trans people out of track and field.

Conflicted? They should be feeling remorse but they won't.

And they still believe that Trump will just cut out ginormous abuse and fraud out of Medicaid.

You simply cannot help the terminally stupid. I am afraid they will still vote for Trump and the GOP when they are living on the streets, or conflicted about letting grandma die because saving her would be too costly...
