While Republican pundits and commentators lament the 2022 election results, they ignore the critical application of the 1948 Presidential campaign. The lack of midterm dominance disarmed the Democratic and Biden especially of their preferred ad hominem assaults that blame their political opposition for the inevitable consequences of the doomed economic policies enacted during the first two years of the Biden Presidency. The parallels mirror those of the 1946-1948 cycle between Truman and the so-called "do nothing" 80th Congress dominated by Republicans that saw the election of Truman in 1948 in one of the greatest electoral upsets in American history.
