Whoa, this is a real well thought out post here that I'd have to say I agree with.
I think the Republican party (not republican voters) has been fixated on the stock market which is not something that everyday people care about. Continuing to talk about how the market is reaching new highs is not something that people who lost their jobs in Pennsylvania, West Virgina, Michigan, etc. Stock prices going up doesn't change the fact that coal jobs are most likely gone, manufacturing too (esp auto), etc.
That doesn't even take into account Corona, which has killed so many peoples lives while the stock market is doing just fine.
But yes. It's the economy stupid. AND THE REAL ECONOMY, not the stock market.
At last someone else on the internet who gets it.
The stock market it not the economy.
Crap low paying jobs are not the same as skilled jobs / trade jobs.
And my favorite. Ignoring change and advancement because you don't like it does not mean that it's going away.

Just as something to know, this is not me saying that I'm a major democrat or something. I'd say that I agree with the Republicans on tax policy and such, probably lean more on the libertarian side of things for some policies as well.
But yes, I would totally agree with what I said before about the economy. Regular peoples incomes and jobs are not indicated well on the stock market for obvious reasons. Republicans have to start caring about small businesses in America and advocating for pro small business policies. Kinda disgusting that I have to listen to Joe Biden to hear him say things about small businesses and such.
But.... sigh... here we are.
