no, what we heard, as amplified by media, was an anchoring to absolute price levels when blaming biden for inflation.
in other words, MAGA wants their $2 gas remembered during covid, but not the inflation spikes on other items from the latter supply chain shocks. nevermind that gas has greatly dropped back down despite the russia scenario escalating, nothing to report there.
and as inflationary RATES run irregularly through the economy as overall purchasing power steadily decreases as usual, who do you think will get media credit when egg prices inevitably drop back down?
trump, the great deflation creator. items more difficult to to control\predict, like the price of single family housing, will simply be ignored by the media.
it is beyond belief that voter economic perception is affected more by media than their actual economic circumstances, but i believe that is where we are.
again, gop voters believe the CURRENT economy is already better not just since, but DUE to the trump win.
when STEM has no chance, the dismal science has even less. attribution is dead.
