“The reason this election swung so much to Donald Trump is that we had severe inflation at the beginning of the Biden presidency, people pinned that (incorrectly) on Biden”
No… This goes back to 1992: “It’s the economy, STUPID!”
After 3% inflation on top of 3% inflation on top of 9% inflation, people told Biden they were hurting.
Biden’s reaction? “We now have the strongest economy in the world.”
When Harris was asked if she’d do anything different, she said:
“There is not a thing that comes to mind,” Harris said. “I’ve been a part of most of the decisions that have had impact.”
You can’t dismiss valid economic concerns and expect to be re-elected.
“low-information” voter is anti democratic rhetoric. It’s an argument that some votes should count more than others. Or that some voters are better than others. First time I heard the phrase was on Rush Limbaugh like 20 years ago. I’ve been disturbed how often “progressives” adopt this bullshit mentality.
I always took it to mean that people are fed shit information by design and we should fix that.
Yeah, the actual problem is evil voters who want what’s coming.

You sound exactly like a Nazi right now.
Hating people for what they choose to be is nothing like hating someone for what they simply are.
Maybe, but that’s not what you did. You called them intellectually inferior subhumans. That’s Nazi talk bro.
The one core reason is that 73 million Americans are vile ignorant pieces of human garbage.
Or, maybe it has something to do with who owns print and broadcast media, social media and other algorithmic psyop structures, and is leaning hard on educational curricula.
The social narrative. The information water most people swim in. It’s owned by the adversaries of universal suffrage.
TL;DR Inflation in 2021 got incorrectly blamed on Biden. Most incumbents in democracies worldwide got a popularity hit in the past 2 years.
got incorrectly blamed on Biden
Which the “liberal media” didn’t spend much time on trying to correct.
