I would also take that bet, but when the pain gets great enough people do come out and vote historically anyway

People coming out when they felt great pain is what got us Donald Trump. I don't know if you remember the 2016 election, but I do. People were RABID for Trump. Something something be careful what you wish for.
In 2016 the tone was wanting for an outsider not a political insider. Trump was the only outsider on the final ticket.
On the Democratic ticket Bernie Sanders would have been the outsider. But the Democratic National Committee under Debbie Wasserman Shultz made sure to avoid a vote by the people of the Democrat party and put in their chosen one, insider Hillary Clinton.
nah still only 60 something percent turnout
Guess how that compares to prior elections.
> People were RABID for Trump.
‘Were’? Has that changed? They got exactly what they voted for.
I was not trying to say they aren't still. I was just saying that in 2016 they were out in droves voting for him.
