Although Miranda Blair didn’t want to vote for Trump in 2016, she is now a strong supporter who openly sports a “Make America Great Again” cap. The sales manager, who was 40 years old and had voted for Obama in 2008, decided not to cast a ballot for Trump in 2016 due to her concerns about his lack of political experience.
The rising cost of living and what she saw as the Biden administration’s indifference altered her viewpoint, though, during Trump’s term. Blair’s belief that living was more affordable under Trump’s presidency is based on her experience with President Joe Biden’s administration, when she struggled financially.
Vote for Trump: Nostalgia and Economic Longing Shape Support in New Hampshire
Among Trump’s backers in New Hampshire who are rooting for him to win the Republican nomination for president, the notion rings true. Blair and other voters think the Trump administration was better economically, even though the Obama administration has been touting Biden’s achievements and efforts to increase employment. The Trump team is capitalizing on this sense of longing by highlighting how individuals feel their lives have declined since Biden became president. Concerns like inflation and the ever-increasing cost of gasoline highlight the difference.
With the slogan “2016, 2.0,” Trump is staying true to his political image in New Hampshire. Even though his character and opinions haven’t changed much, the riot in the Capitol and false statements about the 2020 election have had an impact on his political trajectory. His followers, who have a profound aversion to authority, buy into Trump’s story of a massive plot against him. The fact that the majority of Republicans in New Hampshire believe that voter fraud will determine Biden’s victory in 2020 adds to the already widespread mistrust of the electoral process.
Many Americans hope that the country might return to its “better days” with Trump in the White House. The high cost of living and inflation, in particular, take up much of their conversations and strengthen their support for Trump. As he gains ground in New Hampshire, Trump’s team is playing on people’s nostalgia for the good old days of economic growth under his presidency and the promise of a repeat performance should he be re-elected.
