The president and his GOP cronies want to tamper with government statistics and use deceptive budget gimmicks to lie about the impact of their massive tax and budget cuts.
trumpers can blame biden all they want. You can’t deny an empty belly, and if the president is saying everything is great while the evidence to the contrary is literally visceral, that’s not gonna work for long. Just look at how well doing that exact thing worked out for biden and harris.
I suspect that trump will try it anyway and once it fails, he’ll pick the next entry on the “then they came for” list and start blaming them.
But want the economy doing good under Biden? Sure you had inflation but at a much lower scale then most of the world. I don’t get why you think it was bad? Or am I missing something.
“You’re not suffering! There are other places that have it worse!” is messaging bereft of empathy.
Better messaging would be to admit the economy sucks, making no excuses but without unnecessarily accepting blame, and put forth a vision forward. Denying the obvious is just an admission of not being up to the task.
The economy was doing well, but as we see in these comments that it’s tough to communicate things like
inflation is back near normal: all the increases since Covid suck, but prices shouldn’t increase that fast anymore
businesses and stock market doing well, even though we’re not republicans
working hard to contain avian flu, even if it means eggs will be expensive for a few years
huge investments in bringing manufacturing back to the US. Factories being built. So many new jobs … in a few years
huge investments to bring back new technology leadership we threw away. Factories and labs being built. So many new jobs … in a few years
finally making good progress limiting carbon emissions. Avoid the worst parts of climate change
huge investments in rebuilding ancient falling apart infrastructure, we can’t keep putting it off … even if it likely wouldn’t actually fail in our term
great international cooperation toward peace and security
saving literally millions of lives of the poorest humans, saving untold misery, devastation from disease, starvation, abject poverty
improving health care coverage for millions of Americans
first steps toward getting excessive educational inflation under control.
first steps toward rebuilding a network of intercity rail connecting us all
and many more
Yet this is already a wall of text many would ignore
I am so refreshed being here. I hate Trump. But bidens magical economy was not reality, myself and many of my circle all in very high demand sectors spent longer unemployed than any other time in history. People were hungry and unable to pay bills. Who was benefitting from his economy? Only the ultra wealthy. I just don’t see it. And I feel gaslit when people say bidens economy was so good. Trumps is worse of course but we haven’t even reached a minimum.

Record unemployment though! *huge percent of which were part-time jobs that did not pay a living wage
