And then in Obama’s second term he just had the incumbent’s advantage. Then neoliberal Biden, VP to Obama, won on change again. Then Trump won on changing back.
You may just be rationalizing because you don’t like neoliberal, so you think no one does.
I don’t like neoliberals, but my comment only referenced them because you defined Obama as neoliberal when his first campaign was very much not. That’s what people voted for. And of the elections after that, the only one that couldn’t be easily described as based on “change” was Obama’s second term against Romney, who is himself sort of the antithesis of change.
That’s a fair assessment, actually. I think many voters often want change or don’t want change, and they don’t really consider which direction the change goes.
If anything bad is happening, whether it’s the current administration’s fault or the previous, they’ll be interested in trying something different.
