This reminds me of the presidential election of 1992.

George HW Bush was on top of the popularity polls. He had a positive rating of some thing like 95%.

Yet he lost to Clinton.

Yup...”Read my lips...,” “It’s the economy, stupid...,” passing the torch to the next generation....

We gotta hang the twin albatrosses of invasion and inflation around Kamala’s neck, and make it stick.

George H. W. Bush had an approval rating of 91% in March of 1991 in the aftermath of the Gulf War.

The November 1992 election was 20 months later. In that period of time, he managed to blow his former popularity rating, a lot of it due to the abandonment of his “Read my lips; no new taxes” pledge.
