Democrats have a lot of experience with “pivots,” but after the failure of impeachment their plan to attack the President over the economy defies logic.
It’s not possible to square that with the below snapshot of what the state of the economy looks like, how the American people feel about it, and who they believe is responsible for it:

The below video speaks for itself:
This “pivot” shows that House Democrats lack of any compelling message. Outside of socialism, which notched another win on their side last night, they have no agenda and are forced to make empty attacks on the economic boom that people across the country are feeling.
