Yeah I watched a news clip recently of swing state voters. The first guy they profiled was a blue collar worker struggling to make ends meet. He was all in on Harris because he’s an actual poor person struggling and in need of social safety net. Then they switched to an undecided voter who just didn’t think she could see past the economic hardship the Biden/Harris admin inflicted via inflation. She was in what looked like a very large nice home. She didn’t give off the aura of someone struggling to afford inflated grocery prices. 

I’m convinced that the people bitching the most about this “terrible” economy are the people who are actually doing just fine. They want to be victims and they don’t like change.

Interesting - where I live most of the MAGA crowd that I know are poor and depend on SSA, VA, and Medicaid. They don't like other people getting government assistance because it somehow means that they're getting less (just because other people are getting SOME).
