Dishonesty cuts both ways. Trump has consistently performed better than his polling shows, because an awful lot of people wouldn’t admit that they voted for him. Just because these people say they regret their vote doesn’t mean they actually do.
It’s possible that some of them don’t want to admit to a stranger that they’d change their vote.
But, most of it is probably choice-supportive bias or post-purchase rationalization. They believe they’re smart, right-thinking people and that they couldn’t have made a horrible mistake, so they look for reasons to feel like they made the right choice, despite all the evidence against it. They’re supported by a whole group of propaganda networks that explain away every bad thing that Trump does and shift the blame to democrats, liberals, trans people, immigrants, non-whites, women, etc.
We’ve heard this from their own mouths. They may feel regret, but they have learned no lessons and have clearly stated they would do it again. These people are evil beyond redemption.
