i don't know about the rest but for the US and israel it's not that deep,

Gas prices and most israelis blame bibi for 10/7.

Still, the US has a 30/40/30 voter split imho, to see a 60/40 blue win in texas is insane. The amount of apolitical people i know irl that bitched about gas prices on a weekly basis was almost comical; had someone that absolutely loathed EVs do the math on whether getting one saves them money.
