    Always … liberals / democrats manage economy to balance budgets but no one sees the results because economic effects take time

    By the time time effects are felt, conservatives / republicans come into power and everyone associates the economy to them … conservatives / republicans than gut the economy and give money to wealthy owners which degrades the economy

    Public get tired of bad economy, support liberals / democrats to do something about the economy

    Rinse … repeat … rinse … repeat

    • Public get tired of bad economy, support liberals / democrats to do something about the economy

      Then people forget who was in charge when the bad times started. Was fun talking to my mom recently about COVID and how the economic downturn and lockdowns were primarily under Trump. Not even trying to blame it on him or anything; just stating those coincided and were during his term because having an a basic timeline is apparently hard when it goes against the narrative you want to push, even when you actually know the years and months those events happened.
