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 dunno been a republican and democrat voter throughout my life. The dnc did the right thing time by pointing democracy itself was on the line

    Apparently we have enough people in this country who simply cannot appreciate the rights we have.

    A bunch of really dumb Americanare about to realize what truly was on the line this time around.

      You’re kinda missing the point of what I’m trying to say.

      The total number of Trump voters barely moved. As a fraction of the total populace, it actually probably slightly decreased.

      The total number of Democratic voters decreased by like 12%.

      The DNC alienated their own base. People stayed home, and it made a difference.

      Democraticy is on the line, so vote for the ruling party only. Or else you will get worse.

      You see how maaaaaybe that was not a super stable platform? You might get an clue that people are angry and feel abandoned by the nation so that when running a campaign you should not TELL EVERYONE HOW GREAT IT IS!.
