The average joe six pack doesn't even know they're one missed paycheck away from disaster and they're out there looking at new F-150s hoping to get an approval. π€
Also, I watched a lot of Harris interviews and crap, and she would always start her statement with "I know a lot of people aren't feeling the progress we've made on the economy and that's why we want to X", but that was too nuanced for donkey brains.
She should've came out with a series of ads saying things like "I am running for president, the previous president is Joe Biden who stepped aside and will not be on this year's ballot" and then talked about basic governmental structures in the country...preferably over a popular song.
Everything I've read from the people on this site is analysis that would apply if the electorate wasn't full of complete idiots. However, it is.
Trump communicates on their level because he repeats obvious things over and over again and he is donkey brained just like them...that's part of the reason why he's their hero.
If the voters are that stupid, then it should've been easy for Harris to get elected. Democratic politicians must be even stupider than the average voter is.
It's possible to be intelligent and disliked by stupid people. I think that's more common than being intelligent and well-liked by stupid people.
In addition, Harris is a woman. Stupid dudes definitely do not like it when a woman is smarter than them.
You aren't following me. Why isn't the smart person able to fool the stupid people into voting for her? She did everything right. She had tons of celebrities endorsing her. All of her messages were carefully run past consultants and focus groups. It should've worked, right?
She didn't think that's what she was trying to do, IMO.
