And that republican guy told them he’s going to ramp up inflation. (tariffs, mass deportation) and raise their income taxes (the vast majority of his voters are not 1%). And they still voted for him.
But they won’t understand that. It’s all about feeling instead of logic. Honestly think the deck was stacked against the incumbent this year, just as it was in '20 because of COVID and '08 because of the financial crisis. As the saying goes “It’s the economy, stupid!”

There was no incumbent in 2008 unless you are aggregating to the party level.
Yes, the Republicans were the incumbent party. McCain was dragged down by Bush’s fumble during the Financial Crisis.
