Barnicle: The lived economy impact

“I think all of the things that impacted the election, inflation still remains and was the critical factor because what the Biden Administration was doing nearly every day, God bless them, coming on television and telling people, voters, that we had the strongest economy in the world. That is actually the truth. We have the strongest economy in the world; but it’s not the economy, the average lived economy that people endure each and every day in this country. People pulling into gas stations in brand new Ford F-150 trucks or expensive cars or old cars and getting half a tank of gas because they were running out of money looking at the numbers scrolling….That’s what did it, not ideology – money,” says veteran columnist Mike Barnicle during this Morning Joe conversation about the 2024 presidential election.
