It is both factually right (let's face it, the vast majority of trump voters fit that description to a T), and supremely stupid as a campaign strategy (you have to inspire people to vote in you, if the other guy does it better you fail, no matter how low his rethoric).

This fits the Kamala voters well too, but a citation that doesn't exist is probably needed.

Agreed here.

8 out of 10 people on both sides wouldn't know what happens to the price of a bond when it's yield increases/decreases, let alone what happens to the price of a consumer product when tariffs are attached to it.

My theory is that this election was won through a combination of economic timing due to COVID/inflation, and the left providing perpetual unhinged social media material.


> This fits the Kamala voters well too

It does!

> and the left providing perpetual unhinged social media material

Well the right also provided such an uninterrupted stream of unhinged material, so


And this time they lost the meme war. Apparently it's time to come up with new material.

Thank you for your kind words. Don't you think you're generalizing a VERY big group a bit too much?
