Do you feel it's better to fight with all of your being for a single cause or spread your energy to support several causes?
Yes.
I mean, yes, we will fight with all our being for a single cause. And, yes, we will also spread our energy to support several causes. Is one better than the other? I don’t know, and quite frankly I don’t care.

Preparing America for World War II: Franklin Roosevelt, Isolationism, and America First
In his Third Inaugural Address on January 20, 1941, Roosevelt declared:
"We know [democracy] cannot die—because it is built on the unhampered initiative of individual men and women joined together in a common enterprise—an enterprise undertaken and carried through by the free expression of a free majority."
https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/third-inaugural-address
Although FDR was supported by African Americans in the North, he was supported by segregationists in the South. Yet, he was a great president. With an isolationist in the Oval Office, the non-democratic countries might have obliterated enough democracies that the United States might have been alone in the end.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_D._Roosevelt
Many supporters of the U.S. president-elect are some of the angriest winners we've seen. Not surprising.
