    So Trump’s going to skyrocket inflation and debt again? Like he did last time and that this administration is finally in the late stages of cleaning up?

    This happens basically any time a Republican president is elected. They shit all over the economy, tank it and finally when Democrats clean everything up these morons cry “I was better off under the guy that fucked up everything.”

    I keep seeing everywhere that voters voted on the economy, yet no one seems to be pointing out the exhausting, blatantly obvious truth. It’s been happening for what, 20+ years now?

    Republicans make a mess, Democrats are always forced to clean it up. So pardon me if I think the voters are idiots.

      Maybe, probably. This admin hasn’t cleaned up inflation though. They failed to address the primary cause, or alleviate any of the symptoms. Nearly everyone is worse off now than they were 4 years ago, during a pandemic. That takes a special kind of failure.

      You can claim whatever, but that’s how voters see it. If you want to win votes you need to meet voters where they are, not where you pretend they are.

      Because no one has fixed the economy after Republicans, like you’re suggesting.

      They have made it worse.

      Obama inherited the result of Clinton’s poor financial decisions on the housing market passed to resolve the issues from Reaganomics. What did he do? He gave hope, sure that’s more than Clinton or Harris were capable of, but he didn’t fix it. Wages continued to go down compared to productivity and inflation. Shit just kept getting harder. Credit card debt started to balloon again. The average American was suffering more at the end of Obama’s term than any of the Dems acknowledged… And Clinton lost because of that.

      The voters care about a few things, life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness. Neither Dems or Republicans guarantee or improve access to any of those. Biden busted a union strike for fucks sake.

      Very few voters who were harmed by trump were helped by Biden. So why vote for Biden with a vagina or Trump.
