Watching conservatives get upset every time there’s a good jobs report and inflation and gas prices fall.
Because the goal isn’t to help people, they need things bad so they can trick people in voting against their self interest.
@BlastBunny: Common practice.
When Bill Clinton was running for President, Carvill's campaign strategy was "It's the economy, stupid!" Everyone had to stay on message and tell everyone all the time how bad the economy was, but the catch was that it wasn't. It was doing alright, which Carvill said was the point. He said and others agreed that telling people it was bad constantly would "bring them around" because they heard it so much.
Non-incumbents also always talk about increases in...
Kinda hard to maintain that message when people can see prices falling.
It’s a bad strategy
Kinda answers why all those Biden “I did that” stickers are hastily being scrapped off pumps now.
@BlastBunny: True, but it's almost never about the truth, even if it's a truth savagely slapping everyone about the head and neck. It's that shit about "staying on-message".
