Exactly. In 2016, some of these folks actively wanted Trump to win because they honestly seemed to believe that if things got really bad, people would realize the error of their ways. I’m like: “if it gets that bad, we don’t have elections and people are in jail.”
Almost none of the people choosing not to vote in this election due to Gaza were wanting Trump to win in 2016. Let's be real, please. You're equating two very different view points and reasonings.
