No, they certainly won’t.
May Democrats will flip and vote Republican over this economy. They’re paying massively inflated prices for gasoline and groceries, their rent has skyrocketed, and they’re having to work multiple jobs to survive.
Meanwhile the issue taking up time in Washington is finding a way to shovel more money into foreign wars that aren’t even ours.
Those chickens are going to come home to roost.
People were seeing those same stresses beforehand…and Democratic voters aren’t complaining about the economy. Almost like Krugman is correct about the idea that the complaints are due to partisanship.

Uh huh, and we elected Biden on the promise to change it. Three years later, it’s worsened, and voters likely will hold Biden accountable for that.
It’s not partisanship. It’s that people are struggling.

It’s Paul Krugman. Whenever people are discussing economics and there’s a mismatch like this, he’s going to weigh in.
