There was some good news for Trump though—many of his campaign’s points of attack against Harris and the Biden administration appeared to connect with voters, with 47 percent saying he prioritizes a good climate for business (compared to 37 percent for Harris) and 43 percent saying he would prioritize lowering the cost of household goods (compared to only 36 percent for the Democratic nominee).

Harris needs to speak at a fourth grade level without sounding condescending. Are people even listening, or are they dumb? It’s probably the latter, but it’s not their fault they’re dumb. There are well-oiled propaganda machines making fools of us all.

      Seriously. Especially with the massive trade tarrifs he’s proposing… You think companies are just going to bend over and accept those extra expenses? No. They are just going to pass that expense onto the consumer as a cost of doing business.

      Yeah I found this phrase quite irksome too.

      Conservatives everywhere seem to get this “good economic manager” perception for free. It shits me. The tarries he’s talking about would be a terrible idea for everyone - especially lower class consumers.
