Democrats were mostly in power and people were unhappy with inflation, so we got voted out.

Hillary, Biden, and Kamala pretty much ran on similar platforms and policies, the only difference is Hillary and Kamala were running while a Democrat was in office and Biden was running while a Republican was.
