What’s Going On?

What’s somewhat of a mystery is how there can be such a disconnect between certain economic numbers of late—which have been quite rosy—and the opinion polls regarding how people feel about the economy. I guess it has something to do with the (still) high cost of food.

Or is it more complicated than that? Is it somehow related to consistent negative reporting that’s getting more attention and having more of an effect? Many, after all, don’t listen to MSNBC or any of the other major networks besides Fox.

Are there more people in the Trump camp than there are in the Biden camp who will say their lives suck simply because they know it will dampen enthusiasm for Biden? Or is it more the sad reality that there are many more people who are still having to make the difficult choice between paying for food, or medicine?
