Didn't stop the voters' feelings either.
Shockingly, being told you are doing better when you're still paying more than you can afford for food and shelter doesn't suddenly make it true and makes you mistrust the person telling you that.
Is the economy doing better on the macro scale? Yes, but when prices have only continued to increase from their COVID levels, the working class doesn't see the improvement. We just keep seeing corps making record profits year after year while our savings (those of us who have any) disappears before our eyes.
Disregarding the feelings of the working class like you are doing is one of many reasons Harris lost. Feelings aren't easily swayed by facts.
That's propaganda at work. don't worry, I'm certain this will all get better in six months when the prices double.
It might radicalize more people against the right, so we might get a net positive out of it.
But, yes we are in for some very bad times. It's a shame Harris just assumed progressives would vote for her while she happily marched rightward to try and pull Republican votes she was never going to get. She could have won if she hadn't taken progressives for granted.
Well now they've seen twice that it doesn't work, Wonder if those sort this out if we ever get another shot?
