      COVID is not responsible for Trump’s win. The electorate is.

        As the article is stating “the economy is the biggest reason” people vote for Trump. The economy is bad for normal folks because of inflation, which was high in part because of corporate greed but also because of the major cash injection to “save the economy” through COVID.

        Our (necessary) reaction to COVID set the conditions for Trump to fan the flames of peoples gripes.

        A universe where inflation caused by a monetary injection to “save the economy” that becomes the gripe most people have to vote for Trump is an alternate universe? The headline literally says people voted for trump over the economy. The economy sucks for us because of inflation, caused by our reaction to COVID and the effects it had on supply chains…
