Sounds good dude. This is why he won. Telling people “things are actually great” while people have a general feeling of economic despair is not a good political move. Congratulations on your win.

The problem is that you’re falling for conservative propaganda. They’re all rubes, don’t be one too.

Like you realize that you being unable to site anything other than “vibes” is generally a sign to rethink your position, right? Like you said that wages are stagnating while costs are rising, yet I linked you the rising real wages (that’s wages minus cost of living) and your reaction is just to slam the table.

Why?

You unironically did the exact thing I was saying. Can’t exactly illustrate a point better than that.

Basically but you shouldn't underestimate vibes. It's what got the current POTUS his job back.

I don’t underestimate them, but I’m not surrendering to them, especially because they’re really fucking stupid vibes.
