It's truly baffling that people could look historically at US elections and unequivocally say "When people are concerned about the economy, the incumbent party doesn't do well...........................................but this election it'll be different!"
The fact that the campaign didn't distance themselves from Biden will truly be studied for generations (who am I kidding, it probably won't)
They convinced themselves by saying 'the economy is great, actually' and ignoring what voters were saying
