Wealth inequality continued to grow under Biden, and the average net worth of black families decreased.
This neoliberal obsession with "incremental improvement" is a fucking plague. It's so easy to blame voters for not recognizing marginal changes, but it's delusional to think today's American voters are any different from voters in any other era or part of the world. Not recognizing that is political malpractice on the part of Democrats.
This pattern that we are living through is the same pattern behind every fascist movement since Mussolini. It starts with a failure of leadership from out of touch liberal elitists.
Democrats stand for absolutely nothing. They check the polls to figure out what people think they want to hear, but they never follow through because they have no conviction. Someone who is passionate about starving children doesn't slow down to brag when starvation falls by 10%. Democrats do, and that registers with voters - consciously or unconsciously. Democrats can point to charts and figures all day long but,without genuine passion, they will always fail to break through.
Voters want conviction. Republicans have it, and Democrats don't. Shaving half a point off inflation won't change that.
