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.

    Not a surprise. The majority of Americans are dumber than a bag of rocks. Zero ability to do proper research. Believe superstition over science. Oblivious to other cultures and languages. The list goes on.

      And this has all been done on purpose. American children can’t get a proper meal at school. Low paid teachers buying their own school supplies. Kids bombarded with reactionary media trash, tracking, and behaviour manipulation from their phones. College students saddled with debt and not being able to afford homes. Homelessness criminalized. Prisoners turned into slave labor.

      prices have doubled, megacorps profit have “atleast” doubled. genocide with our tax money way more than doubled. 1 of 3 people i know in tech got laid off while there company spent billions in stock buybacks

      the list goes on. but hey there were bills which achieved nothing but gave billions to dnc donors firms and stats show economy is great.

      on top of all that harris was a terrible candidate whose campaign was all about ignoring anything that was evenly remotely negative to her megadonors agenda. her getting picked over warren as vp was a spit on the dnc voter base to begin with.

      but i am sure dnc consultants will come with the same smug research as you and will be paid millions for it by the elite trash like pelosi and schumer to keep their corrupt hold on “democratic” party.
