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.

    They didn’t promise unicorns like the Republicans did, and voters still got mad that only some people got unicorns.

    Republicans have promised to eat all the unicorns.

        Yeah, the U.S. pushed for global adoption of the HPV vaccination that literally vaccinates against that cancer. That’s what he was referring to. And if people get it instead of drinking horse dewormer, it’ll stop that cancer from spreading.
