    And they’ll hike it regardless, blame inflation and reap the profits. Oh wait, that’s what they’re doing already.

      “The economy” is just a wildcard character for whichever of 6000 different metrics a low information voter wants to use to justify voting R.

      Gas prices, inflation, wage growth, GDP, corporate profits, the Dow Jones… one of them is sure to be better when the R was president and another one is sure to be worse when a D is president.
