Opinion | Voters punished Biden for problems he didn’t cause and effectively addressed - eviltoast
The fight against rising prices has essentially been won. But few in the electorate seem aware.

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.

    So its a good thing that Biden used the SEC to break up monopolies

    The election is over you can stop lying

    implement things like click-to-cancel

    Oh fuck yeah an unsubscribe link on spam emails! America is back, baby!

    O BEAUTIFUL FOR SPACIOUS SKIES

    invested 5 trillion dollars in the middle class and green energy manufacturing

    I said you could stop lying. Fucking infuriating how cynical liberals are when constructing their fantasy world.

    You’re taking credit for the bad bill that was supposed to be passed along with the good bill.

    Except the point of separating them was to only pass the bad bill. (remember when Elizabeth “Redface” Warren RAN on pulling this shit on you?)

    So now you take the full price tag of the bad bill and pretend it was for good things. Remember what we called it when we called the other bill (again, the fucking ghouls, with maximum cynicism) ‘the green new deal’? We called it the ‘toll road bill’.

    You’re warping reality and history.

    Oh and he also tried to

    Love when liberals take credit for not doing good things, Remember when they “tried” to raise the minimum wage but were stonewalled by an instantly fire-able employee?

    pass student debt relief but kept being stonewalled by repugnants.

    Again, as was said to you thousands of times but you were too obstinate to acknowledge: he didn’t need congress. He could have literally thrown away the paperwork if he wanted to. Somehow the previous president had the authority to halt the loans but when the senator from MBNA took office that power suddenly didn’t exist?

    You know better and you’re pretending not to.

    Biden was the first president to turn away from neoliberalism

    Because you want to live in a fantasy world that would shatter upon literally a single fact being thrown into it

      This by the way is a perfect example of how the democratic party never learns from its mistakes. Because the adults are no longer in the room and the children believe all the lies they were told growing up

      Same thing happened with the republicans, just 20 years ago
