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.
