I am waiting for the day when people (including pollsters) learn that when people say they’re voting on the economy, it’s often because it’s a socially acceptable front for other, not socially acceptable reasons.
To me, if you're writing a big picture look at gaps between the parties and where the electorate stands, the main takeaway would be "I don't think most of the electorate voted for a dictatorship, no public services, and a return to Jim Crow."
Opinions differ though.

Party leaders have embraced convenient excuses. This perilous political moment requires more self-reflection and honesty.

I'm sorry, but "they took over the whole federal payments system, fired the career staff, and won't let anybody see what they're doing" is not a situation in which you wait for more information. It's a situation in which you assume the worst. There's no explanation for it other than rampant crimes.

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

People have gotten so into Nate Silver James Carville bullshit about politics that every argument now has to be about what will win elections instead of what you actually believe and when you end up at that point you don’t really have any values at all
