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.

      What she needed was outrage at those responsible. Corporations.

      The DNC isnā€™t allowed to bite the hand that feeds them their funding

        So then more fascism it is. And Demā€™s would rather stand by than stop it because even stopping it isnā€™t very profitable for their owners.

          Oh ya, the old addage that if conservatives canā€™t win elections they will abandon democracy not conservatism has an inverse.

          If capital wonā€™t support the means for a liberal to win elections they will abandon victory before capital.

          Dems are not standing by, they just ran a whole goddamn election. That they were/are bad at that is not in question. You can be mad at them all you want for losing but donā€™t act like they didnā€™t try to warn us and do something about it
