Summary

President Joe Biden’s economic achievements—lowering inflation, reducing gas prices, creating jobs, and boosting manufacturing—are largely unrecognized by the public, despite his successes.

His tenure saw landmark legislation like the Inflation Reduction Act, CHIPS Act, and major infrastructure investments.

However, Biden’s approval ratings remain low, attributed to inflation backlash, weak communication, and a media landscape prone to misinformation.

Democrats face a “propaganda problem” rather than a policy failure, with many voters likely to credit incoming President Trump for Biden’s accomplishments due to partisan messaging and social media dynamics.

    I for one am tired of the smoke and mirrors.

    Queue up meaningful change but then “oops, new term, <insert insane reason or just GOP>” Obama didn’t investigate Dubya’s fucking Torture Camps, nor into the subprime mortgage.

    They did the same shit with Net Neutrality under Obama. Left it with a massive and meaningless “ramp up” time that coincidentally meant it would be a year into the next president’s term. Oops Ajit Pall is parachuted in and cancels the whole thing before the “ramp up” is done.
