Right, things were going much better under trump… right…?

It doesnt matter if they were or not. People aren’t smart. They will think wow gas was cheaper and my groceries weren’t this expensive. You can say Biden passed all these programs but it doesn’t matter if people feel their finances are worse under Biden than trump.

Yeah, implementing a tax law that expires under Biden to cost the lower earners more is such a sketchy move.

If your reflex argument is "My guy sucks but Trump does too" it's not an argument that's going to drive people to go vote Biden. That's an argument for apathy.

The post you're replying to wasn't a judgement call on who was better, they're just pointing out that these issues are what drive people's votes. If people feel like their situation sucks, they'll want to vote for a change. People don't vote by hard analysis.
