incredible. as in this is your nth post with zero credibility.
'affordability' was the key issue with the gop in 2024. ~80% of locals ads were on this in my area.
what the gop understood that dems didnt, is that complex discussions around covid disrupted supply chains, inflation, and the cantillion effect did not have a conservative audience that could understand them. and this continues, with no concept of how tariffs may affect prices, and inventing the word 'groceries' seem sufficiently placating.
you may remember the gop reduction of all economic issues to 'are you better off today'? sure , the parrots may crow about that 1 day egg prices go down, but the in-your-face daily receipts and monthly payments all trend severely up, even for 90% of the lower income gop voters that thought trump was gonna make them rich.
the core MAGA base of racism, misogyny, christofascism ; those were always layups against harris.
i still dont want to believe those alone were big enough for the win; reality seems more aligned with success in simplistic consumer cost messaging.
pre-emptively, do not confuse this with a dearth of rightwing parroting of excuses. you have shown that supply is plentiful, block engaged.
