@MakerWerks @JV3MJD @deAdder Yes, but they react to how they "feel" in the moment.
Economy is good, but they "feel " bad because of inflation. Crime is down but they "feel" unsafe because of "illegal immigration ". All because they have been fed a constant diet that is how they should be feeling.
Most elections come down to whether people feel better or worse. Unfortunately, most don't evaluate facts to make a decision.
@JV3MJD @deAdder And in the end, none of it mattered. The electorate now sems to thrive on low information.
