No.
They.
Didn't.
You don't vote for a billionnaire who want to eliminate taxes for "economical reasons" when there is a dire need for social services and a redistribution of wealth and
when we know most of the measures will benefit mostly the wealthy AND when we know that Trump is about to unleash an inhuman deportation of people beneficial for the economy that will require a large amount of ressources that will simply NOT go to the economy.
People do not care about facts and data,
they are NOT voting for their interest, they are voting for their
values.

There is a reason why I'm changing the way I interact here. We understood in the french left (after many years) that the problem was our obsession to try and convince conservative when the reality is that we had the PROOF by A+B that those people do not care about the facts. Quite literally, when people are presented with facts, they denied it in front of you.. literally as explained here in this video by this doctor in political science and rethoric analyst (it's in french.. too bad.):
The point of this video is something I have been refusing to see for years:
We are living in the post truth Era.
This means that no matter how many times you will try to show facts to some people, they will invent their
own facts. This is something that has been developped by the far right AND some Liberals. And the problem is that it works !
But it works only for those who create the most appealing facts, which are, logically : Conservatives.

So no, I won't waste my time trying to debunking things that you can find anywhere on a quick google scholar search, I will focus from now on with the fact of creating a wall between those who defends those person who enable those who defend those person and some of us.
This means targetting directly and without blinkin the
REAL reason for the Trump vote instead of the one liberals and Trumpist want us to swallow:
This vote is based on identitary values nothing else.
You call someone who is trying to open your eye about the horror that is climate change.. a prank ?
You combined here things that I'm denouncing and things I agree with.
Labelling people has NO effect on their ideology.
On the other hand, the rise of prices and the abandon of democrats of the working class might explain the radicalization of a PART of the working class toward the far right who is luring them with big demogagic promisses.
But if those people were REALLY interested by their interest, they would be going toward the side that has more chances to resolve the problem instead of a Billionnaire who will factually worsen the inflation.
When people are presented with the facts and datas relatives to the incompetency of a candidate, they should listen. But as I explained earlier, this is not what motivates this part of the working class.
People who invocate the "public image" of Biden when supporting all the racist and sexist shortcuts of Trump have no say.
If you criticize one, be sure to understand why the other is as problematic.
