They were unwilling to go hard attack on the people setting prices.

Biden was calling out price gouging throughout his presidency.

Harris said she would make billionaires pay their fair share and they literally bought votes for Trump.

Scapegoating democrats for going up against the billionaire class seems like exactly what the billionaires would want.

I hear you, but I think they didn't go hard enough. They needed to make noise about how they are going to XYZ to fix prices. I know they said it, I'm saying they needed to say it more, louder, and drop some of the other stuff.

Meanwhile the billionaires convinced the voters that democrats were responsible for inflation and spun “tax increases for billionaires” into “tax increases for everyone”.

And polls show that voters were most motivated by inflation.
