Real change only comes in the teeth of a catastrophe. If you want to see real radical change like the New Deal era policies, your best strategy would be to vote for Trump. He’s the most likely to preside over a terrible crisis.

The naïveté is yours. It allows you to believe that if you only vote for people you like, you’ll eventually win. It’s a view point that, strangely, ignores what you lose when what you don’t want wins.
Yeah, in your case, it’s because you don’t actually want what you say you want and instead use it as an excuse to instead vote for tax cuts for yourself. You’re not really covering your narcissism but keep trying.
