Former President Trump is projected to win the presidency

There was not enough focus on economy in a way that actually mattered, certainly - though it probably wouldn't have made a difference.

Biden absolutely should have dropped out earlier. It made Harris look like a last minute sub (which she really was).

It's telling (on a number of levels) that one of the most popular Google searches yesterday, on election day, was "Did Biden drop out?"

Between price controls, tariffs, and excepting tips from taxes, I had no confidence either candidate could pass Econ 101. The proposals can play well politically, but it leaves people who have a basic understanding of economics at a loss of who'd be better.
