Summary

President Joe Bidenā€™s economic achievementsā€”lowering inflation, reducing gas prices, creating jobs, and boosting manufacturingā€”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, Bidenā€™s approval ratings remain low, attributed to inflation backlash, weak communication, and a media landscape prone to misinformation.

Democrats face a ā€œpropaganda problemā€ rather than a policy failure, with many voters likely to credit incoming President Trump for Bidenā€™s accomplishments due to partisan messaging and social media dynamics.

    propaganda isnā€™t truth either.

    Republican propaganda just happens to be lies 99% of the time. And it works. Very very well. Propaganda outside of that is literally just shit like rosie the riveter. In which case itā€™s not really damaging. Otherwise it would be a lie, because it would be factually untrue, and therefore damaging.

    The propaganda you are alluding to here is people patting themselves on the back, a little bit too generously. The propaganda i am referring to is on the same level of the nazi propaganda machine.
