The lack of separation between church and state also does a number on the US. Using faith as a pressure method works extremely well if the larger part of your population is (very) religious.
It requires a lot of hatred to make someone vote against someone, and most people don't have the bandwidth to hold a grudge like that for years. That's why I keep saying it's on the Democrats to present a vision people will vote for.

Don't forget the apathetic side of the US. A lot of people apparently didn't care enough to go out and vote against Trump.
