Republicans, including Vice President JD Vance, have been making the argument that they need more time to fix what is broken in the economy.

Last month, while appearing on a podcast, Vance said:
There’s a lot of good that’s been done, but there’s a lot of work left to do. Don’t give power to the people who cause the problems that we’re fixing. give us another chance or give us another couple of years to continue to work on the amazing things that we’ve been doing for the past 2 years. And the second argument I’d make is even if you don’t agree with us on every issue, the other party is consumed by craziness.
The argument from Republicans is that Democrats broke the economy, and they are fixing it.
Voters aren’t buying it.
One of the biggest shifts from Trump’s first administration to his second was that in Trump’s first term, he used Barack Obama’s economy to convince people that he knew what he was doing.
The truth has been revealed to the American people in Trump’s second term, and even Republicans are admitting that the American people aren’t buying what Trump and his party are trying to sell.
Even if some miracle happened and things got better overnight, it is too late to help Republicans.
