Trump's vote share after eight years of Democratic governance during a mostly-mediocre economy: 46.1% Trump's vote share after four years as a wildly unpopular incumbent, during a year of mass unemployment: 46.8% Trump's vote share after four years of explosive Dem job and economic growth: 49.8%

Explaining these patterns as a function of economic trends requires so much reverse engineering and special pleading that any relationship becomes meaningless and nonpredictive anyway.
Will Stancil (@whstancil.bsky.social) reposted reply parent
At some point it becomes far simpler and more useful to accept that these results are not a product of some mechanical relationship between voter choice and the economy, but the ideas and beliefs circulating in the US (including about the economy).
Will Stancil (@whstancil.bsky.social) reposted reply parent
The ceaseless attempts to somehow reframe election results as a function of economic factors is crippling our ability to respond to Trump, by giving his conflict-averse opposition an excuse to keep their heads down and wait for outside conditions to magically convince voters fascism is bad.

About this Florida vaccine story: When they were little - 1 yr and 3 1/2 - my two older boys, who’d had all their shots, got whooping cough. We asked their pediatrician what would’ve happened if they hadn’t been vaccinated. “Oh, they’d have died.”

The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.

I know, I know, but: The president of the US saying, literally, "we're going in" in reference to sending the military to an American city for no reason beyond terrorizing the local population should be the most immediately impeachable shit imaginable
