The fact of the matter is, prices went up under Biden’s watch, and they were getting the wrong message from Democrats at the time, which was “hey, it’s all OK, trust us!”. And in a system where we only get two choices, that meant either sitting it out, or voting for the other guy one.
What the Democrats did not point out enough was that we were coming out of a Black Swan global event AND Russia attacked Ukraine. They don’t have to get into the details and working to bring relief would be welcome for sure, but it’s not like Biden caused either Covid or Russia’s aggression…
When Biden left, virtually everything about the economy was headed in the right direction. Donvict was handed an economy that was called the envy of the world and still the big baby whines about it and proceeds to fuck it all up.
I bet anything that if a Democrat gets in there, the Murc’s Law types will be immediately blaming the Democrats for not fixing things fast enough.
The economists agreed the economy was headed in the right direction as a whole, but those are the bottom weren’t seeing it. They vote, too, and will abandon candidates they think aren’t listening.
It’s rather telling that amid all this controversy over the “DNC Autopsy”, the key point which the DNC seems to be ignoring is the fact that the political consultants that ran it were all well off, and didn’t see the same day-to-day pain that most people did. There is a reason why the term K-shaped economy is so popular.
And yes, Trump won and he has made things so much worse. But was hard in 2024 to vote for “more of the same” when your situation has gotten worse.
the economy was headed in the right direction as a whole, but those are the bottom weren’t seeing it.
Id go even farther than that. Biden started a lot of good things, not just the better economy, but way too much was longer term and no one has an attention span anymore. Too many voters can’t look at a chart and see “lines goes up” or a schedule and see “next decade is mighty fine”
