My FIL has always said he didn't like Republican party "because the rich man never did anything for me" which is complete BS because he worked for a telephone company his whole adult life (after returning from Vietnam) and guess who started that company that employs thousands of people? A rich man. When I point that out to him he doesn't have an argument so he blows it off.

At this point I don't care to talk about it with him but it frustrates me that he's willfully ignorant of the party he votes for and back in November told my husband (who is Republican) that he cancelled out my husband's vote. Neither of us find it humorous.

You might begin with the vast majority of large corporations are controlled by old money rich Democrats. They want low wages to pay their employees, basic supply and demand. This is the reason they do nor mind open borders. This is beginning to change a bit now as all the theft, lawlessness is beginning to effect their bottom line.
