20 hours agoIt basically happens every cycle, easy to go back all the way to George Bush Sr -> Clinton ( if not earlier).
But the problem is, the current economic boom is even more K-shaped than any other in recent history; half of the population are struggling worse than before, but their plight is masked by an incredible boom for the other half.
I can’t blame the working class for thinking back to ~2016, and remembering things fondly.
Trump will only make the current situation worse, but I can at least understand how the US ended up in its current predicament.
Be the change you want to see in the world! 😉
