    No, most people decided neither option was good enough. Trump destroyed the economy, Biden finished it off. Harris lies to voters and said they were better off than they were under Trump, which isn’t true for any group of voters.

    So if Harris doesn’t even see a problem, she’s not going to help. Trump is a liar but at least sees there’s a problem. At worst nothing changes regardless of who gets in office using this reality. At best maybe Trump accidentally does something good.

    Harris, by deciding to lie about the Biden economy and ignore the economic reality the majority of Americans are experiencing, effectively eliminated herself as a candidate. She explicitly and implicitly stated she doesn’t care about and will not improve economic conditions.

    Harris ran the same campaign as Clinton, plus genocide. She failed worse than Clinton. It was predictable, guaranteed really.

      Well the economic reality will be improving in the next 6-12 months, right after Trump takes power.

      This is what always happens: some Republican becomes president, trashes the economy then when Democrats take power they’re on cleanup duty. But of course the results take longer than four years, so another idiot is elected into office and the pattern starts all over again. Republicans take credit for their predecessor’s economy and people shit all over Democrats.

      This pattern has been happening for as long as I can remember (I’m 35); it baffles me that no one else sees it.
