IMO, Biden has basically done everything right on the economy, and it's doing as well as it can in terms of what a president can do - and very well overall, including historic lows on unemployment.
But what we're seeing is the power of two things: propaganda and ignorance. Oh darn, some prices are up 8%, BIDEN SUCKS.
*94%* of Republicans say the economy is poor, showing the essentially universal power with them of the right-wing propaganda. NOTHING Biden can do can change their opinion. He could send them million dollar checks and that might drop a little.
Imagine if Biden had a real economic problem - like trump's Covid crash, or Nixon-Carter inflation, where do they go from 94% rating poor?
This is our situation - where issues and facts aren't what influence voters, but irrational biases hugely influenced by propaganda. And all to try to replace Biden with a Republican who will shift more money from the American people to the rich. If people don't get that now, it seems likely they never will.
