It’s always fun talking to them about anything bad happening economically and them blaming it all on republicans when it’s typically always when dems are in office. I don’t trust most data at this point, but I personally had the best financial years of my life under Trump, which is true of most people I know. Talked to a lefty and he said “no, things were horrible under Trump!” He had also still had the best financial years of his life under Trump. And once Trump’s out of office, now everything’s Trump’s fault, despite the guy in power actively doing things to make the economy worse.
Say that about any other topic and nobody’d even take you seriously. Add in any confusion and uncertainty, and people will believe anything.
I love the cope of "The Economy is 100% reflective of what happened 4 years ago, not what's happening now!" Except during the forced lockdowns/restrictions lifted.
In the Soviet Union, innocent people would make excuses for the government as they were be taken away in chains to be tortured, starved or executed in the Gulags, saying things like "it's just a mistake, if Stalin knew I was innocent this wouldn't be happening".
Some people simply do not have the capacity to understand the truth and will live in denial their entire lives just so they can continue to live in their delusion.
