If things didn't suck for so many people, they would've been casting seeds onto stone. It's much, much harder to radicalize someone that's content. Instead, the messages found fertile ground. The solution isn't to just ignore the issue and say "actually everything's fine, look at numbers go up!". It's to give people hope that you're actually fixing the issue.

The entire world experienced massive inflation. Biden's policies brought us out of it better than most 1st world nations. People seem to think trump will bring prices back down. They apparently don't know that deflation is even worse than inflation.

Biden's policies brought "the economy" out of it better, at the expense of your average person.
