Yes and their unawareness of employment numbers going up, prices stabilizing, companies being prosecuted for price fixing and profiteering, consumer rights being strengthened, unions being strengthened, etc, is in large part the fault of the media (and yes a fair bit fault of the party who couldn't tell anybody what they were doing).

Things were getting better, and people's view of the economy ended up being extremely wildly distorted from the real numbers by the end, people were fearful over nothing because media boosted the fear campaign from Republicans.

Yes and their unawareness

You can blame millions of people for not taking a slightly better choice, or devote your energy to making sure their next choice is overwhelmingly easier.

One makes you feel superior to others, the other makes life better for everyone.

One is a co.plete and utter waste of time, the other literally saves lives.

Which one do you want to pick?

So voting Trump saves lives, because in the next election....

I think you replied to the wrong comment.

No I replied to your comment which implied you should not vote for democrats because they sick, but you should work to make people's their next choice easier.

To me that equals causing a Trump win and then claiming that saves lives. If I misunderstood, you might want to be more clear in how you word your comment.

which implied you should not vote for democrats because they sick

Then you misunderstood my comment, you might want to remain calmer before verifying someone said what you think they said in future interactions.

Most people won't stick around to clarify after.

Which ironically takes us back on theme.

On if it's better for people to feel superior to others, or to accomplish something.

Seems I don't need to ask which you prefer
