Bloomberg News co-founder Matthew Winkler came out with one of the dumbest explanations for why consumers believe President Joe Biden’s economy stinks: Blame those darn 2020 “election deniers.”
Winkler published an op-ed for his liberal publication with an on-the-nose headline that smacked of lunacy: “Blame Election Deniers for Faltering Consumer Sentiment.” According to Winkler’s senseless conflation, it’s “no wonder” that Americans despise the 40-year high inflation-rattled economy when “about 70% of Republicans believ[ed] incorrectly that Joe Biden lost the 2020 presidential election when he won it by more than seven million votes.”
According to Winkler, those pesky “Republicans denying the 2020 election are easy prey for mischievous economic messaging.” It’s unclear how Winkler could make that connection in the face of U.S. GDP contracting two consecutive quarters to meet the technical definition of a recession. Perhaps this could be the reason why at least 69 percent of Americans “feel” the economy is getting worse?

The only thing that people that write garbage like that are actually good at is gaslighting.
Election deniers are the ones who think Trump didn’t legitimately win in 2016.
Election realists are those who are aware Trump was cheated on big time in 2020.
Those pesky people who won’t accept the lies of the Ministry of Propaganda are to blame......
Please my company a bank nearly as old as this country has cancelled all travel, virtually frozen hiring, and all sorts of other things… do you think that’s what businesses do when they think the economy’s doing great??

It’s Bloomberg. Just a bunch of far left Biden trashed economy “deniers”.
Yeah, ‘cause 80 million people voted for higher prices, higher taxes, more regulation, and stagflation... /s
There must be one heck of a lot of “election deniers” then.
“Election Deniers” is going to be about as successful as “Climate Deniers.”
Didn’t Clint Eastwood back the little Bloomberg gnome? If so Eastwood is on my chit list.

It’s called a grocery store, gas station, or hardware store.
