The single most common criticism of President Biden’s reelection campaign is that he made a ghastly error by branding his policies “Bidenomics.” Americans think the economy is terrible, and Democrats have been begging the president to stop branding himself as the architect of something that people hate.
I think this advice is wrong. Biden needs to change the public’s view on the economy if he’s going to win.
Okay, I’m being hyperbolic, but the messaging is that the economy is all of the following
working great
for average Americans
And doing better now than it was two years ago.
The third claim, I guess there’s some room for because of lockdowns and all that, but I really don’t see the first two. I just don’t. Not that I think Trump will be better; he’ll be far worse ofc, but I don’t see a meaningful positive impact from Bidenomics in my life, nor in the lives of the people I know. So, like I said before, this really just feels kinda like straight up lying from my POV.
Nailed it. Maybe the economy is doing great if you’re one of those folks who can afford a lifted F-250 and trips to Disney, but I’m not one of those people and I don’t know anyone who is. The next car I buy will probably be over five years old and last week I took the kids through an automated car wash as a treat.
Going to the car wash as a treat really nails the vibe for me. I hope things get better for you guys soon.
That’s the neat thing, they’re better than they’ve ever been and it’s still like this. Shit just keeps getting more expensive.
