Take your pick, you can’t have it both ways.
Either Biden’s economic policies have been great for the economy, and everyone saying otherwise is just spreading this information, or misinformed.
Or, his policies have helped a certain class of wealthy Americans, while leaving the rest of the middle and working to decline, just like every other administration of the last 40 years.
So which is it?

It’s actually been pretty good for most people; we had an incredible recovery from the highest unemployment since the Great Depression, and wages have started outpacing inflation again over the past 18 months. And inflation came down without mass unemployment.
That doesn’t mean everybody had identical outcomes.

Wow you’ve really internalized MSNBC talking points. And I mean that literally, I’m pretty sure I heard those exact same words from one of multiple anchors in the last several weeks.
Like I said, glad to hear everything is all going great, just like MSNBC pundits and NYT op-ed are claiming.
Honestly, you should volunteer for the Harris campaign. Already got your door knocking elevator pitch down pat.
