Incumbents are getting rolled all over the developed world. Voters really, really hate inflation - especially after 15 years of extremely low inflation left many with zero real experience with it. Seeing a jug of milk or a Big Mac cost 25 per cent more than it did four years ago makes a far deeper impression on many low-engagement voters than anything Trump says in his rallies.

The other big issue with American voters that the Democrats didn’t have an answer for was border security. It polled as the 2nd or 3rd most important issue with voters for the last couple years (compared with 12th to 15th for Israel/Palestine), and the Biden administration had really low approval ratings on it.
