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.

    One of his first acts as president was to deliberately double child poverty

      Seeing a lot of silent downvotes for an objective fact recited in a value neutral manner.

      That in itself says more than I could hope to about the topic of this thread

        Okay, I’ll bite and take a few minutes to refute yet another of your seemingly patently false statements that you provide no evidence for.

        Are you talking about the expanded child tax credit that the senate didn’t pass(the house did)? If so, that’s not on the president.

        I downvoted you at almost every opportunity bc it seems like you’re just talking out of your ass, which isn’t helpful. If I missed something that you’re referring to for poverty, feel free to share and support your argument.

          Are you talking about the expanded child tax credit that the senate didn’t pass(the house did)? If so, that’s not on the president.

          It’s the unified government under one party of which the president is the head

          You’re being a dishonest weasel
