This is true, but only because every President since FDR did damage to the working class. Biden was absolutely a breath of fresh air, and it’s unfortunate that neither he nor Kamala were loud enough about it.
With the campaign Kamala ran, it would surprise the hell out of me if most voters understood the good that Biden did. To average people, it makes no difference to them that inflation is back to normal when the price impacts don’t go away. It was campaign malpractice to try and sit on past accomplishments without offering new initiatives to make things better.
What Kamala offered was too little, too complicated, and too quiet. All voters heard was that she would be the same as Biden, and that CEOs and neocon warmongers love her.

The price impacts were never going to go away! It infuriates me that people were dumb enough to believe this! It’s not how economics works and it’s not something the government can control!!!
It’s totally irrelevant whether or not these voters understand the underlying economics. What they know is that they can’t afford to make a car payment and buy groceries anymore, and they know that the Democratic messaging is totally inadequate and out of touch. If your political strategy requires voters to understand the underlying economics realities, then you damn well better be telling them what they should know.
