    No amount of presentation can fix food and housing still being waaaaay too expensive.

    Dems saw the contest was uphill and decided to try and ride on a sled. The GOP at least had a bicycle.

      Well, with the hope that the GOP can “fix” an already good overall economy comes a lot of crazy policies that people will have to deal with in many other policy areas. But people chose to be single-issue economy voters and will now have to live with the insanity of all the other policies.

        Yea, it’s gonna suck, it was not the right decision, but people are desperate to actually get some economic security and the Dems only have themselves to blame.

        Just using the Latino vote as an example, a lot of them went to the GOP because they ONLY reason they voted Dem was economic. Dems didn’t even need to say anything on social issues, all Trump did was run anti-trans attack ads and “Trump won’t tax your tips and overtime!” and they lost a fucking huge number of very socially conservative Latinos.
