This BTW is how you involve in the story the reality of what the voters think, which is an important portion of election coverage, while still upholding your basic journalistic responsibility to communicate to people what’s actually going on.

    I’d recommend you exit the right-wing media loop - it’s well established that it is designed to provoke fear and disgust responses that’ll burn you out pretty quickly. It’ll also fill your head with the kind of transparent nonsense that would motivate you to vote Trump, but that’s a different issue.

      I’m not sure that commenter actually supports Trump or if they were using that as an example answer to the question.

        Yeah the way I presented my pretend survey was pretty confusing I think. The three bullet points were meant as the three possible answers, by way of explanation of why the polls about “are you better off etc” look the way they do. I am not a Trump supporter, no.
