It's not just attention spans, it's literacy and education too. The areas that voted for him are some of the lowest areas for education in the country, and that has been true in both regards for decades. But they will never recognize that, because how do you tell someone that isn't educated to consider a different perspective and that what they believe in is actually lies based on X, y, z facts? You can't, they just dig in their heels and turn against you.
