From an election perspective, that meant they could still vote for Democrats, despite their guilt in causing this economic downturn. The electorate could vote on hope that the economy will somehow straighten itself out. They could embrace the illusion that they would get their student loans paid off, that America would go green, and that it might all just work out. For many, the economy just wasn’t bad enough for them to change their voting patterns.
like i been saying
the voters are gonna have to take a lot more pain
before they say
this aint right
Choices:
1. It is as you say.
2. Massive voter fraud negated Red Wave.
It looked like in the Midterms, the issue of abortion rights took priority over inflation, crime and border security. At least, here in NY where I live, most politicians including Kathy Hochul kept beating the abortion drum.
For Gen Z-ers, most of who are registered independent, it was the prospect of college loan forgiveness that drove them towards Democrats and motivated them to vote.
“Americans have not suffered enough pain with this economy — yet.”
‘Yet’ being the operative word, which gives me hope for 2024. MAGA! I agree with what you said. Life is still pretty easy in America.
Also, Socialist Democrat voters are getting most of their stuff paid for by Mother Government. Who’s going to want to jump off THAT Gravy Train?
Well, this narrative sucks ... but it’s better than Americans were upset their baby murdering might be curtailed.
Agreed, not quite yet 1980 when Reagan was able to really come out in front of people and ask if they are truly better off at that time compared to when Jimmy Carter started his term in office.
Many Republicans running didn’t talk about Covid and the lockdowns enough IMO.
Liberals caused this economic crisis with their mandated closures.
Liberals will say.. but this is a world wide economic crisis... to which I reply ... YES!! because liberals took their idiot idea to shut everything down world wide!!!!!
Nothing government can do can fix this now except for what it is already doing. Gradually raising interest rates until they strangle the economy and entice enough people to take their money and put it into long term savings.
Maybe it was because Republicans offered no policies or plans. Their campaign was blame the Dems. The Dems campaign was Abortion and Trump. That kind of campaign results in nothing more than a standoff. In 1994 Gingrich and the GOP provided a detailed plan. That and 50 years of Dems in control led to the restructuring of Congress. In 2010 the Tea Party led with the ideas of smaller govt, lower tax, greater individual liberty and the Dems ked with govt overreach. This time both sides led with blame the other guy.
Nah, Americans are just stupid.
In Arizona, there was a LOT of cheating.
Pain right around the corner....2023 and likely into 2024.
It takes a while for the useful idiots to get the message.
Just spoke to a fellow conservative at work about this. He said the libs he has run into say that the economic impact is “just something we have to get through to get it to a better place, and we all must do our part.”
So, the gaslighting and brainwashing appears to be working as designed.
supposedly liberals were so fed up with hochul that they were ‘going to vote zeldin’- obviously that didnt happen-
Well if Bezos’ prediction is correct, people will be hurting next year.

Oh, yes...it is patriotic to be poor, cold, and hungry.
So, by the logic of this article, only the people of Florida have suffered enough, hence the Red Wave in the Florida elections.
This is gaslighting, pure and simple. Don’t fall for this BS.
There was no Red Wave because there was rampant election fraud.
Americans by & large are a passive and disinterested lot
50 years of massive, never-ending third-world immigration has also watered down conservative victories.
People don’t want abortion because THEY might need an abortion.
They want abortion because they feel that abortion kills off people that are/will be a problem for them or their offspring.
