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.

    Holy shit, a true clown-troll account made specifically because of the results of a political election. Get a fucking life or even just a singular hobby to better waste your time with.

    The working class didn’t come out in droves, it was the same fucking numbers. Republicans are taught at a very young age it was their duty to vote, it’s ingrained in a lot of the family structure while the left/progressive stems more from active engagement and a distrust in the political system.

    If you think Biden stepped down just because he was “too old”, you slept through the past year. It was a valid concern and still is as the sitting administration, it’s even more concerning we’re about to have the oldest elected person in history in fucking 2024.

    Economics hardship was already here, that’s probably what pissed me off the greatest about this last election cycle. “They’re going to come after us if you don’t vote!” removed, hey’ve been coming for us, everyone is just pretending it’s important now.

      Holy shit, a true clown-troll account made specifically because of the results of a political election.

      Lol. I created this account the day after the election because I know the cesspool Reddit is about to become (already kind of was). Your little whiny removed opinion about why I’m here means jack shit to me, loser.

      The working class didn’t come out in droves

      Millions of people is droves, you dumbfuck. Working class people came out in droves and voted for a guy that’s openly anti-worker. That happened.

      If you think Biden stepped down just because he was “too old”

      He was pressured to step down for two reasons. Because he was old and because his handling of the Palestine issue made a lot of young voters uncomfortable. And after the debate, it was mainly the age thing. If you believe otherwise, you are living in an alternate reality. Then we proceeded to replace him with another equally old person. Americans making a lot of sense on that one.

      Economics hardship was already here

      And now it will get worse.

      So anyway, go fuck yourself.
