People didn't want the order they are used to, aka the status quo...
People literally voted to wreck the "order they are used to"...

My gods... you're talking about a "soft landing" and "his accomplishments"...
You understand stonks going up doesn't matter if you are a week from being homeless, and an empty cupboard, right?
One being bad doesn't discount the other being bad as well.
Biden could have, and in fact, legally was supposed to once the UN declared a likely case of genocide being perpetrated by Israel.
You have a couple of options:
First, get the gun, but before that, line up a "firing pin buddy" who can keep parts to make sure your firearms cannot fire. You give the person your firing pins when needed, or they feel they need to.
Or, don't get a gun, and git gud at other valuable skills. First aid, mutual aid networking, etc etc. Also, pepper gel is decent enough for self defense. Also, cane fighting skills work well, and a lot of self defense cases exist, for example.
Whichever party pushes pro working class policy, that actually centers and improves the material conditions on the ground, will win in the long term.
No party will, however. It's a matter of which one talks the best about it, and it's the GOP right now.
But neither party wants the material conditions to improve. That would hurt their masters, our oligarchs.
People are hurting, economically, and a lot of those people chose the person who is NOT in office, ie they voted against the incumbent who is telling them everything is fine and to stop whining.
It would have convinced a sizeable [Arab] American citizens to vote, rather than stay home to avoid voting for Genocider A or Genocider B.
About 8 million [Arab] Americans cared enough to stay home, from voting.
See: Detroit, Dearborn, and several other Midwest cities with large [Arab] American citizens who stayed home, and depressed the vote there.
I'm not.
They thought they were one of the good ones, in the minority group.
Same thing with the log cabin Republicans doing the surprised_pikachu.jpg when the GOP passed them over for everything.
I literally hate the new reddit UI, as do most peeps I've spoken with...
The new reddit UI is designed to push ads, and push premium subs.
All of those were on the chopping block. Remember we froze discretionary spending in year 2 of Biden. He called it a win for America.
Trump did tariffs in year 1, Biden left them, and added more.
So, yes, people voted to disrupt the status quo, in which they starve. Will they still starve? Probably, but the change was a chance for it to be different, rather than a 0 chance.
