President Biden was hammered relentlessly about the economy from the moment he took office until the day he left both by Piss and the corporate media. It didnt matter that we came out of Covid better than anyone, that inflation was under control, that significant investments were made in the country or that the stock market was doing well. People didnt feel like the economy was doing well and so they let that imbecile back into power on his absurd promises. All the other stuff was peripheral.
Fast forward to now and the economy really does suck. Average Joe is really paying the price at the pump and at the grocery store and every other aspect of his life. People dont care about this war except that its sending the price of gas through the roof. If it had worked like Piss said it would, people would be fine with it.
Most voters dont get into the minutiae of politics, they care about what they can see and feel. And their wallets are taking a beating.
And thats why the Republicans are going to get dog walked in November.
