A number of my friends and family members are surprised at my decision to support Donald Trump for president. Some others, quiet Trump voters themselves, seem even more surprised I am willing to do so publicly. I am not a Republican per se, having non-voted many times, having voted Democrat in some elections, and being aligned with one side or another on different issues across the spectrum. But this election seems clear.
I keep a careful household budget and know exactly how much more food, gas, and minor luxuries such as a meal out have cost me over the past three years. I can see, to the dollar, what inflation has cost and know this wasn’t the case under Trump. The economy under Trump had ups and downs, largely due to Covid, but I fail to see anything on that scale driving Biden-Harris’s inflation. I instead see massive spending, loan forgiveness, and other policies which seem to have a definite negative effect. I see Harris promising to give away vast sums of money to various groups (childcare, small businesses, home buyers, black entrepreneurs), which will be likely to promote inflation. And never mind me—Biden-Harris introduced their economic policies and massively increased spending without regard to their impact on low-income Americans for whom all this is survival-level stuff, not mere headlines. We can’t afford another four years.
National and Battleground Polls: Final 2024 Analysis
Three scenarios for tomorrow: (1) As we’ve seen in the past, the polling fails to correctly measure Trump’s support, which ends up surpassing what the data projects for him. Under this circumstance, he almost certainly wins. A pro-Trump polling miss of just a few points in the battlegrounds could result in a swing state sweep and a decisive victory.
