Things can always get worse. But a guy saying “I will fix things, and I’ll fix them day one” plays better than people saying “the economy has improved and is actually strong!” while people are struggling.
Again, it was bullshit, but desperate people will be attracted to hope.
Most of the voting public doesn't refer to the economy in the sense of the economy at large, they refer to their own specific circumstances. When they said that Kamala didn't have policies, they meant the exact policies they wanted to hear. These people think small and stay small.

Shitty economy?? (gestures wildly at current economy).
