It’s really not if you’re a wage earner in 2/3 of US states, where it’s still perfectly legal to pay you $7 an hour. Since Idaho got away with criminalizing abortion, 2/3 of the states will soon follow.
Hell, homelessness jumped 12% in 2023 alone. I’m guessing, for those people, “I’m not Trump” isn’t going to be as persuasive an argument as you might think.

It’s really hard to vote if you don’t have a home address, so those unhoused people don’t matter in our system.
And you’d think after 2016 the Democrats might have realized that they need those votes, but they’re too busy getting wealthier to care.
