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.

    not propaganda wings. The left is too critical of itself. CNN is owned by a right winger, WaPo is owned by bezos. The Atlantic i have no idea, that might not even be US based.

        find me ANY credible examples of it being propaganda. Iā€™ll wait.

        With fox news i can at least point to the dominion case, which is clear evidence of propaganda, and most right wing news sources parroting the same debunked, factually untrue claims.

          Oh I get it youā€™re using a wrong definition of propaganda. Propaganda doesnā€™t mean lies.

            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.
