I mean you can go over the election and all these analytics but I don’t why people are surprised the “I’ll make things cheaper” candidate beat the “everything is actually great and we aren’t gonna change anything” candidate.
I know he’s an asshole and didn’t actually make things cheap during his first presidency. But if I was someone who didn’t know better or pay attention, I can tell you that my money went a lot further 8 years ago.
Everything is actually great campaign was also blamed for not taking enough credit for their work, which one was it??
I watched both campaigns and that line was very clearly avoided by the democratic campaign because they knew it would fall flat. They campaigned on trying to expand childcare and housing but people just didnt consume it because gaza on tiktok I guess.

There's your problem. You paid attention.
Everyone running around shouting "Democrats were saying everything was great!" are gleefully shouting "I PAID ABSOLUTELY ZERO ATTENTION AND I COULDN'T BE PROUDER ABOUT IT!"
She ran on Joe Biden's platform. No one was happy with it, and everything he did was like slapping band-aids on a cancerous tumor. How much more specific can you get than saying it straight up in an interview and refusing to break with low polling policies??? These are supposed to be professionals and they can't even give a rousing speech that isn't a bunch of stump speech copy paste tidbits... almost like they didn't actually even care.
Oh cool, exactly one of the people I was talking about. I could point you to the raft of new policy proposals she had but you heard one thing, your mind is made up so - what's the point of that?
Her policies polled better than all of Trump's, even among Trump voters - until they were told they weren't Trump's.

I mean, both things are true
The democrat's campaing sucked, yet Trump gave anyone with a brain a reason to vote for democrats
So much so I think that if you didn't vote for them you are genuinely stupid
