Paraphrasing: Most people aren't feeling the pain yet, but they will very soon
Translation: we are not at the precipice ... yet

I had a feeling that’s what the answer would be…talking with mother in law in Az today. Asked for thoughts on what’s going on with the election, she had no clue what I was talking about 🤦♀️ She voted for Lake, she said she doesn’t understand because everyone she talks to hates Hobbs etc. I gave my thoughts and said “don’t trust anyone who says abandon Trump” she was wondering about that. Neighbors, I live in middle/upper middle class neighborhood- split politics I think but even people on our side are comfortable. They make enough money to where it’s just an annoyance, I’m not that fortunate. We have 6 kids, and taxes and inflation can quickly make it extremely difficult to afford to live here. Many people in my neighborhood have no kids or only 2-3 kids, there are very few of us who have 4+ kids but we feel the pinch first. However even still my daughter has friend and I’ve become friends with the parents, they vote blue yet complain about being priced out of the county because of taxes and inflation. They don’t get it, it’s got to get worse for them and unfortunately that means all of us
I am feeling it too. Less eating out, more hours at work, less luxuries, just in case. Sold some of my long term investments just in case I need cash.
What gives me hope is the amount of people I talk to that are ALMOST there. They know the fed is fucked, they know there is election fraud, hate biden, are on the cusp of questioning reality.
