This seems like some “Principal Skinner Am I Out of Touch” action to me. The Dems are going to get smashed after 2 years of bumbling ineffectual governing and then blame inflation.
Definitely some truth to that. I’m just laughing at the imaginary eDems in my head that think they’ve done everything right but that darn inflation snuck up on 'em, ah well. Your logic will never defeat my irrational hatred of fictional eDems I have invented for this purpose.
Quality of life, financially, has gone up for the majority of those who consume the products that have gone up in price - which is in part due to the stimulus + money saved from lockdowns among other things. Overbidding on new vehicles/houses isn’t just due to the supply chain. Prices are high because a lot of folks would still pay for it.
We are sort of past that already outside of sparse mask mandates which are about to go away and the few effects left are in deep blue areas. Dems problems run much deeper than this.
Who could have ever seen it coming. Shitting all over your base to try to work with people who openly despise you has yielded no meaningful progress on the issues that animate voters. Weird.
So after running on student debt cancellation, climate change, economic inequality, health care and corruption, and having done jack shit about any of it, they will still blame the left, who have had zero power and rolled over for the dogshit infrastructure bill based on Grandpa’s lies.
100% guaranteed the lesson they take from the incoming shellacking is “run someone further right in 2024.”
He views white supremacy as a “cultural issue” rather than a 200 plus year bedrock of society that still needs addressing… Its sort of an irreconcilable difference of views so it isnt worth getting into a debate over.
