1. Isn't that what we've been doing?

The republicans will not raise minimum wage, will not offer child care assistance. Democrats have been pushing those causes.
They are too busy listening to RW media getting riled up over DEI, CRT, Drag Queens and trans kids.

3. I personally think when President Biden continued to

call the economy Bidenomics over the last few years, I wasn’t really for this. If the food prices had gone down to normal levels this would have been a great name. I don’t think some understand how much food prices affected the perception of the economy by voters.

2. Right and wrong at the same time...

Right that those are the issues which need addressing, wrong that talking about actual realistic plans to address them will do fuck-all.

It's empty bullshit vibes which wins elections these days, not enumerating technocratic fixes.
