One of the many reasons I fled the US years ago is that I thought that too many Americans were simply too stupid to be allowed to vote, or breed. Years later polls of various kinds are still confirming that opinion. I also see it after every election where the people who supported the winner say how the economy, crime, weather, and just about everything else is so much better now that their guy was elected. They say this immediately after the election, long before the inauguration.
Could not possibly have to do with the press, since January 22 or so of 21, screaming about how old and feeble Biden is. Instead of even mentioning any of the things he was doing to *checks notes* pull the US out of a global pandemic.
The Biden economy got no respect. The media made sure of that. No matter who's side they claim to be on. A recovery is not as dramatic as a looming depression. But Harris has no connection to the economy, they say, so now is the time re-slant the issue. With the Dems coming out swinging, making them look bad isn't going to fly anymore. So Harris gets the 'economic genius' label Biden should have gotten.
Cutting prices in half isn't actually a "plan", especially when you have virtually zero ability to do that. The more Donald pivots towards "policy" the more people will start to realize what a complete idiot he is, which is good. Kamala should just keep spreading the joy and avoid the MSM pressers like the plague, she doesn't need them.
Koch Bros companies like Georgia Pacific have been artificially inflating prices since Covid-19 in '20 and supply chain issues (resolved by President Biden) are no longer to blame, willing to bet they'd drop their prices to make the Dolt look good in return for keeping their rich people/Corp tax breaks.
This tends to confirm what I always suspected about poll questions that are phrased in terms of "Who do you trust more about" whatever: The part after "about" gets lost. Whether you think you're asking about the economy, foreign policy, the border, or anything at all -- even whether Obama is/was a secret Muslim -- what everybody hears is "what do you think about [candidate]?" They just use the question as a vehicle to express whether they like or dislike someone, and the particular issue that's purportedly being asked about has little or no bearing on the answer.
"...come in and take advantage of our country because that is what they have been doing, to take our jobs we are gonna charge them and bring back millions and millions of jobs by doing so and millions and billions of dollars."
Hey, Donnie Dipshit! THEY didn't TAKE our jobs, WE* SENT those jobs overseas to increase profits.
trump likes to rail about inflation, but he doesn't understand how it is a part of the economy. His advisors are trying to corral this idiot but it's like wrestling a greased pig. He said literally nothing that could be considered intellectual, exactly like his interview with Musk, but said both times that Kamala wasn't intelligent enough to participate. She needs to just rip him to shreds on 9/10.
Wrestling a greased pig doesn't begin to describe the challenge faced by his advisors, well actually baby sitters. It's more like preventing him from grabbing a huge turd out of the toilet bowl because he wants it bronzed. It's the bigliest turd ever dropped. Grown men, with tears in their eyes have told him so.
Luckily, Trump's idiots don't care, they just think when he says "I'm going to make everyone wealthy" that this is 1) Impossible, and 2) he's "wealthy" from grifting rubes. If we're all going into the rube grifting business, who will be our marks?
If the owners of the news media were teachers, they would look at the finding "Voters trust Harris more than Biden to keep the Biden economy going" and say, "Dear God, how can we do a better job in the news media industry to inform people better than this?"
I have often said recently that public schools, for all their problems, are doing all right. But after people of average intelligence or lower end their formal education and start getting all their information from the news media, their education slowly but surely comes undone. It is the responsibility of the news media to keep people informed who no longer spend most of their time getting educated. And our news media are mostly failing.
With regard to the photo on this post. As an owner of both a Doodle (rescue) and a GSD (also rescue), I have to state that Doodles are the Tommy Tubervilles of Dogdom... except they are kind and loyal. German Shepherds are the Inspector Columbos (Peter Falk).
I'm getting flashbacks to 2016, where Hillz laid out policies and all the media could discuss was "casts doubts" and "raises suspicions" and "our unnamed source doesn't trust her".

No way was it about that.
So stupid. And weird

You mean elections are about vibes, not actual facts and policies?
Always have been
They're also about how good a candidate looks and speaks.

Nobody can talk self-obsessed nothingness like Donald Trump. You've never seen anything like it.

"Voters trust Harris more than Biden to keep the Biden economy going" is completely on-brand. It's a big part of what makes us exceptional.
"You're all intellectuals today"
Intellectuals is not a word I would use for drooling booger eating morans!
Can’t wait for when Harris releases a 200 page 48 point plan for helping the economy that WaPo will describe as “falling short on details”
I'm getting flashbacks to 2016, where Hillz laid out policies and all the media could discuss was "casts doubts" and "raises suspicions" and "our unnamed source doesn't trust her".
I love how condescending he is to his MAGAs like they're third-graders, all of which they entirely deserve:
"...we’re talking about a thing called the economy."
"right here in a place called North Carolina, have you heard of it?"
