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.

    You understand that under that logic all the ‘good’ you want to attribute to Biden is actually because of Trump, right?

    You can’t argue “economic effects lag behind,” and then claim Biden did good during his term.

      I never said I attributed anything ‘good or bad’ to Biden or even Trump in my statement. I said presidents take credit or blame by the public for things that were beyond their control.
