I must’ve missed all the successful general strikes?

Trump got young men to vote in droves.



Take a look at history, general strikes are very effective. But my point was that we're very far from actually having one because there isn't enough public support. People just don't care. If they did, they would have voted against Trump.

I don't think this follows at all. There are tons of variables at play in an election that make this connection way, way too noisy.
