4. That's a big part of it

My point is that the economy that Biden created should have been enough for Dems to sweep into power in 2024, should have been a landslide.

And another point that I made here over and over is this. If I can't even present the facts on DU and have people believe them, then we are really screwed. The push back was non stop. And no, good overall data didn't mean that there weren't still millions of people struggling, but the facts could not have been more clear, Joe Biden was delivering for working Americans like no President had since FDR. If we couldn't even get our own side to rally around our President for creating a miracle of an economy, how the hell were we going to get swing voters to see it?

Dems couldn't even run on an economy that delivered for working people. And now working people are about to lose everything.
