The chart that Trump should focus on and hammer from now until November

Inflation adjusted income

The middle class cost of living is one of the most important topics in any election cycle and one that Trump can win on easily



If you can read a graph it's pretty obvious what has transpired here. We had a decent rebound in this metric in Obama's second term and an even more aggressive spike in this important metric in Trump's term. Everyone with even a stoner's memory knows what happened in 2020 and is easily explained and then a sharp downturn during the Biden administration. Trump needs to tout this as a success of his first term and convince voters that we'll see a reversal in the downward trend and spike back up if he is given another term.

Almost every other topic should take a huge backseat to this because it affects the majority of Americans. Sure, feel free to point out other flaws in the Biden administration, like the Afghanistan debacle, the terrible response to Maui, and Joe's declining mental ability.

But this should be the drum that gets beaten from now until election time.
