Another problem is that people will blame the government entirely on inflation, but then give themselves the credit for wage increases. It doesn't help that wage increases disproportionately go towards those those to switch jobs.

it is extremely difficult to make this into an election issue - impossible to explain to “joe voter”

The fundamental issue is that Joe voter is dumb - but you can't tell him that, or he won't vote for you (as Hillary Clinton found out).

The million-dollar question is: How to you make Joe voter be less dumb?

Joe Voter is not as dumb as you might think... otherwise just in recent history there would be different election results in 2018 and 2020...
