    You’re missing my point. I’m not saying that our individual economic well being is a rational way to decide who to vote for. It clearly isn’t, and maybe I should have stated that explicitly since it is a common erroneous assumption.

    But unfortunately that is a way that many people contextualize their vote, and what I’m saying is that even from that perspective, the idea that the “Trump economy” was better seems totally disconnected from reality.

    3.9M is a lot of people so maybe I underestimated the reach of this program.
