    The economy was improving. The problem was that people confuse the economy with their income. Income inequality has been a growing problem for decades. Biden and Harris actually did quite a bit to fight this by putting caps on medicine costs, pushing for school debt forgiveness, the child tax credit, and dozens of other programs which Trump is already dismantling.

          So, the economy has nothing to do with incomes and cost of living for the working class, which means everything she championed how great the economy was, she was taking to her supporters, our oligarchs?

          You see how that is worse than just being tone deaf, right?

            The economy being good is required for the average income to be good, so of course they are related. But a good economy doesn’t automatically mean average income will be good (because oligarchy). Don’t think I didn’t notice you entirely ignoring what I said about the capping of medicines, forgiveness of college debt, and all the other programs Democrats did which reduced the cost of living for Americans.
