Unfortunately this usually gets them to go right, not left. And support the party that makes their lives worse.
You’re presented with a major failing of government like this and then given two options: One party that expresses anti-government sentiment, and another party that currently presides over the agencies that failed and tells you that everything is fine and to not believe your lying eyes when you ask what they’re going to do about the six feet of water in your basement.
Which way do you think people are going to go, and at what point does it no longer matter that the first option is defunding agencies that don’t accomplish anything? The Democrats cannot blame Republicans for voting against their own best interests when they can’t offer a worthwhile material alternative.
