    Didn’t dismiss it. But I don’t think it was a deciding factor. It boiled down to groceries and perceptions of the economy.

    Edit: It was also heavily influenced by the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan. Blame whoever you want, but the Biden administration sold people on “the adults back in the room“ and then that did not go well at all. You can see his popularity reputation bottom out of the moment that happened and he never recovered

        I said it was not a deciding factor. Where did I fail to recognize it? Stop trying to claim I did something that I did not.

          If it boiled down to groceries and perceptions of the economy, then nothing else matters. That’s definitely failing to recognize it.

          It was the economy and the genocide. It was both.

            Dude for fuck’s sake stop telling me what I meant when I’m telling you what I mean. You’re arguing with me about the phrase “boils down.“ Are you being for real right now? Blame the American public for not caring more. This isn’t my fault. Go grind your axe somewhere else

              That’s what that phrase means!

              Also, you did it again. “I said it was not a deciding factor.” This, again, is failing to recognize that the genocide was a factor.
