Summary

President Joe Bidenā€™s economic achievementsā€”lowering inflation, reducing gas prices, creating jobs, and boosting manufacturingā€”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, Bidenā€™s approval ratings remain low, attributed to inflation backlash, weak communication, and a media landscape prone to misinformation.

Democrats face a ā€œpropaganda problemā€ rather than a policy failure, with many voters likely to credit incoming President Trump for Bidenā€™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 ā€œoops, new term, <insert insane reason or just GOP>ā€ Obama didnā€™t investigate Dubyaā€™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 ā€œramp upā€ time that coincidentally meant it would be a year into the next presidentā€™s term. Oops Ajit Pall is parachuted in and cancels the whole thing before the ā€œramp upā€ is done.
