    Duh. Like another poster said though, Trump campaigned on improving the economy. He said he would do it. The Dems are so spineless they won’t even lean into that. They focus on niche issues of minority groups. It’s a recipe for fucking losing and they know it is the worst part, because at the end of the day, they get their funding from corporate donors who will cut them off if they ever actually push for real change.

      Let’s be real: Yes, the Democrats ran a historically tone-deaf campaign. But Trump’s entire economic pitch boils down to ‘Just believe me, folks! The same empty promise he made before leaving office with record job losses, broken supply chains, and an economy in freefall. I get what your saying I just have trouble believing voters are this desperate to blame ‘wokeism’ that they’ll ignore:

      • The $7.8 trillion he added to the debt?
      • The 3 million jobs lost under his watch?
      • The fact his ‘miracle economy’ was a sugar rush of tax cuts for billionaires?

      It’s a death wish for the middle class.

        You better believe it. Have you spoken to them? I speak to Trump voters every day. It’s what he says that matter. They do not give a shit about what he does. The Dems don’t speak or do anything about these things so can you blame them for choosing him despite all his lies? At least he talks about the issues.
