I agree with everything this guy wrote, but he missed the key point of the backlash to Biden’s economic policies. Yes, it was a net positive for the country, but on an individual basis, it left a lot of people behind. They got fed up with the talk about how awesome the economy was under Biden when their own salaries were stagnant (if they even managed to keep their job the whole time).
To these people who vote for Trump, it’s a simple thing. They were left behind under Biden, and Trump makes them feel like he is fighting for them. Of course he isn’t, but he sounds like he is, and that’s what matters.
It’s not even that Democrats are all that great at governing, it’s more that Democrats believe in Government in the first place. Republicans just assume everyone in government (especially at the Federal level) is unapologetically corrupt. Then they get elected to run the government and prove their own point.

Democrats are great at governing and terrible at messaging.

Right, Trump lied and told them what they wanted to hear. Maybe if our electorate wasn’t so collectively stupid and childish.
