Fox News won’t bother mentioning this to their viewers.

    You don’t need to play martyr. Get some help if you really want to address it. Trying to convince others to feel hopeless along with you won’t make you feel any better, and it can hurt others in the process.

      Making people hopeful only to have their hopes crushed in the next election is a great way to get them to give up on voting

        Voting should be emotionless. It’s a civic responsibility to make a logical decision to benefit yourself and those you care about. Vote for whomever will do that more. Don’t expect perfect representation at that level of government.

          Which is exactly what I’ve been saying this entire time: Vote, but don’t expect it to help.

          The strategy of telling voters that they can vote for change is what’s caused Millennials and Gen Z to check out. Don’t tell people our government is responsive or effective, because it isn’t and then they’ll get the wrong idea about how government actually works. Don’t tell them they can vote for Hope & Change, because those aren’t things our government provides.
