It's not reasonable to blame people for voting for change when the Democrats did nothing meaningful about poverty for four years and then blamed poor people for being angry about it. The 2024 election was simple cause-and-effect.
That's what partisan Democrats don't get. We were already at 'things got worse', and it happened under Biden.
It is incredibly stupid to value "change" on its own as a key metric. Some changes are good, some are bad, and some are mixed.
It's like saying "I want to go fast" without specifying a direction. You want to get from NYC to Boston and on foot is too slow? Get on this jet, it's a change of speed. Except the jet is going to LA. But it was a change!
Hitler junior was change so just let Hitler junior rule the country? That's pretty stupid, my friend.
That's how it works when your guy lets the majority of the country become significantly poorer. They care less about where the change comes from.
It's not stupid. It's cause-and-effect, specifically, what you get when you vote blue no matter who.
It is reasonable, because of what change meant in this scenario.
