Which means you helped Trump win.

Also the notion that if we just get the right (i.e. Male) candidate on the ballot good paying manufacturing jobs will reappear is absurd. Trump is lying about bringing those jobs back. No one will. The economy is dramatically different from a half century ago. The best they can do is help create different kinds of jobs, and that likely means many of those people will have to move to find work.
