For me as an on looker, Biden's active support and enabling of genocide on Palestinians, over 45,000 dead, thousands injured and homeless and most of whom are children, has overshadowed everything he accomplished and therefore he also sucks.
Don’t discount your role in weakening the Democratic Party and allowing Trump to take office you can give some credit to yourself with what what happens next in Gaza
I'm not American, nor do I live in the US, hence "onlooker", but I take a keen interest in it's politics. I'd have voted D but that doesn't mean I'm not critical or will be silent Re' of Biden or my own left wing Gov's (Aus/UK) foreign policy Re' Israel which are horrendous.
I believed with VP Kamala Harris as president there was a chance we could have stopped the genocide of the Palestinian people. Trump has made his feelings well known about Gaza. He will not force humanitarian assistance at all. In fact he brought up nuclear weapons 💔
Yeah it's a shame we turn the corner on things all we had to do was hold those that committed insurrection fully accountable especially those that had committed the grant conspiracy to overthrow the United States Constitution and government. And we epically failed and now we're going to pay harshly
I can’t believe we weren’t able to lock these policies in for another 4 year term. Now, instead of locking in our 21st Century Renaissance…it will more likely become a 21st Century Depression.
People do not remember he left us in a recession 1929 size. Botched a pandemic that killed a million plus. Unemployment higher anytime in half a century. Hell we couldn't even get toilet paper. And the next train leaves the station on the 20th.
Do real economics. When private debt escalates after balancing the budget you get a crash. If you think Bush not Clinton caused 2008 you don’t understand macroeconomics.
Like a lovely young woman with promise & hope, trump will rape it.
I regret that Biden could never use that word: rapist. He was too polite & couldn’t say it. Now a rapist will preside over us. He never used the word insurrectionist.
Now we will be sorely abused indefinitely because politics.😖
trump will take credit for it. With his short stubby slimy little fingers all over his phone. Sitting on his fat ass twatting all day.
Hes defanged and we’re letting him be in charge right?
Problem is that it doesn't work for the working class as it's not the best from where they sit. This is why we have Trump for the second time. Now they'll be even worse off.
Some things we can stop doing. Quit buying stuff on Amazon. Search for the item and when it comes up on Amazon go instead to the company and buy direct from them.
I am not by any means rich.
I agree that the rich are getting richer. It's more than just rich people who need stocks to do well for our 401k's.
Social security may not he around when I retire.
Oh, I 100% get it, but money is not an infinite resource and as long as there are people walking around hoarding hundreds of billions of dollars, we're all fucked.
Actually, fiat money IS infinite — and that is the problem. The Cantillon Effect empowers the financial class at the expense of wage earners, and this is at the core of wealth inequality. It is a failure of Keynesian economics and Modern Monetary Theory.
Just because a 401k is available, doesn't mean you make enough to contribute much to it. Most people are barely making housing, food, and transportation expenses. Can't save what's not there.
You have to either be rich or geuninly brain dead to belive this. Biden nor Trump has the american pepole in mind. Just american buisness. Its proven time and time again man. No need to lie to us.
The economy is not the stock market, either. Biden has done a lot of good, but the fact remains that the job market is weaker than the jobs reports might imply. We measure jobs in such a way that hides the quality of employment, and even if unemployment remains low, wages are also fairly stagnant.
A greater factor would be a living wage. Either a pay rate that doesn't allow living or employment that doesn't give the necessary hours.
You give the lower population no buffer for when the costs go up. And with little safety net, you get what's happening.
A strong economy with people left behind.
Our economy has been like an out of control volcanoe since the end of 2022!!! The people saying things are bad are lying and they know they are; anyone who has owned their hone more than 5 years is swimming in money! We have a definitive comparison point if Trump screws it all up!
It won't matter how long it lasts. Because when it's good, it'll be claimed by Trump. And when it's bad, it will be a democrat plot, just like last time, and they will believe it just like this time
Thank you President Biden. We're Watching the next administration and we'll call them out every time they dismantle your good work for the American people.
Homelessness went up 18% last year. Over 770,000 people, a new record. That’s irrefutably true too. But sure, the rich got richer, so the “economy is strong” 🙄
"and then, I'm going to freely and effortlessly give that stunning economy over to a dictator and then I am foing to gaslight Americans at Jimmy's funeral with a call to action... And then I'm going to sit back down...."
tbh, I would question whether it's the "best in the world" (give me stats). But I'm not going to fault President Biden. He has done everything he can to make life better for all Americans; and history and his legacy will remember that!
You can check in w/our allies around the globe and our enemies...
It has been this way since the US turned the corner on the pandemic under his leadership.
This has also been well reported for 1-2 years now: CNBC, Google, Fox business, etc...your "stats" live & breathe on their websites everyday.
👨💻
Best and largest aren't the same thing. Largest economy is a fact. Best is subjective. There are many nations where the standard of living would be better overall.
This is fact and needs to be spread all over, everyone need to see it, because as we all know the propaganda party will come out and spew their shit and try and hide what has been built up over the past 4 years
You wasted your time on people who know nothing & appreciate nothing and now someone who knows nothing but hate & spite is going to ruin whatever you achieved. Which was quite a bit.
I think the destruction could go back much further than that. As for the international outlook the US is sounding very aggressive and disruptive and as dangerous as Russia and China
What makes you think Government supplied insurance would be any better ? No matter who provides it The Healthcare is coming from the same providers under the same laws that allow them to get away with it
That will soon change if you have been paying attention to Republicans plans for Healthcare So what do you do then ? Only get sick when a Democrat is in office ?
He tried but lost his majority in 22. so live with your GOP majority. 75%of us suck dust. The GOP trickle down economics. Even worse is when the GOP changes the rules to only help the top 10 %. Good luck to the rest of us.
We need a better counter punch than this. Actual numbers, charts that are easy to understand.Comparisons of what he started with, Orange spending and what he accomplished during the 4 years. Spread this information everywhere. Every punch of lies needs a knock out counter punch.
The “others” make up stories and our response is a few sentences from Biden. The followers of the others won’t look, we have to break it down and put it in their faces. Flood media with facts that all can understand. Posting a court document, make my simple statements, not gonna cut it.
You have now fallen into one of fascism's many traps. It takes a LOT of effort to dispel a single lie from the right. A LOT. And they lie 10 times a day about everything. So there is no enough collective manpower to refute every lie effectively.
I don’t believe that. This requires a “for the greater good” attitude. Each person has a personal agenda. Women, gays, people of color, etc.. has their thing. If we just know our thing is the same thing it keeps us string. Strength in numbers. We have the numbers.
And their followers do not care to put in the effort to learn the truth. And there is not enough collective manpower to fully educate everyone on the truth. Its why even the lie that the German's didn't kill millions of Jews still exists to this day. Many Nazis had to be shown at gun point to get it
Saw a response to Biden's "best economy" claim that cited prices from 4 years ago as if Trump's going to pack us into a time machine or wave a magic deflation wand.
They all seem to have forgotten that Trump left a mess.
These folks will get temporary vindication from eggs, once the flu passes and production returns to normal. And will use that as an excuse to continue voting red no matter what....
I wish we could count on the dems to provide meaningful talking points. I'll win the lottery long before that happens. It's up to us to share where and when we can.
It will happen. We just need to ask. We must communicate with each other. Sometimes, when people are used to speaking in an intellectual manor to those that are familiar with policy and law, they forget how to break it down for the rest. Just ask. I will.
We already saw this dog and pony show. They will drastically increase our country’s debt and take away our rights from day 1.
Will our courts protect us is the question.
We will be in dire straits come 2027 and almost collapse as a country in 2028.
I’m afraid our economy will go right along with the rule of law… fascism is pushed by lawless greedy thugs that only think in terms of their own self gain.
CNN: Since 1981, federal budget deficits have increased under Republican presidents Ronald Reagan, both Bushes, and Trump, while deficits have declined under Democratic presidents Clinton and Obama. ... Dems to the rescue for 40+ years.
When Democrats stop describing an economy where most Americans can barely pay their bills let alone save any money as “best in the world and the strongest ever,” they may win some elections.
irrefutably....well, if that'tsthe case we must admit that the economy is only a measure of how well economically stable people are doing and has little to do with the other 80%+ - nothing to do with overall quality of life either
Thank you President. The press owes you about 4 yrs worth of airtime. They gave it all to a trader-failure-con man-rapist-ect, ect, instead of platforming you to the country and the world. Now it on to more wasted years and pain for so many citizens. But we will FIGHT!
let's keep our eye on jobs numbers. after recovering all jobs lost to covid 2 1/2 years ago, Biden has averaged 250,000 per month. there's no reason trump shouldn't be able to maintain that. trump's pre covid numbers were 190,000 per month btw. Biden is obviously better at creating jobs.
Sure, but he should have not run for reelection so the Dems could have had a primary. He also normalized a lot of Trump policies including keeping tariffs and maintaining Trump's fascist border policies etc.
Prediction, Markets crashing on or after January 20th. Trump ruins everything. When he ruined our Constitution we should have held him and others accountable. Foreign investment in USA is about to stall and likely exports are going to slow.
It will last about 3 years, with Trump taking credit for all of it. Then the next Democratic president will have to pick up the pieces of whatever we have left.
I hope some knowledgeable bankers, economists and statisticians have kept very detailed figures.
We all know that trump will claim this as his own. He'll be telling the world that he inherited a disaster, and made it slightly less disasterous.
That is because they are lying. And this is why they were voted out. And why GOP will get slaughtered in 2028. They will lie too. The 2 big parties lie.
For everyone’s sake, I hope y’all are wrong. But I know in my home we’re spending a lot of time talking about places we can save a little more, just in case.
Bidenomics WORKED, but misinformation worked better.
So disappointed and angry at low-info or revenge voters.
You should be ashamed of yourself for not understanding the assignment.
It was, as ALWAYS, an opportunity to sustain our democracy. At least borrow a dictionary and learn to define it.
Homelessness is at an all-time high. Food insecurity is rising.
If "All Americans" continues to exclude people who have been traditionally part of the Democratic base, then there is no hope to defeat fascism. So please, I'm begging, pull your heads all the way out of your asses and look around.
5 million people have had debt forgiven! Childcare tax credit was GOOD. We need to get venture capitalists out of housing, free breakfast and lunch in ALL schools, Universal healthcare. I too wish people would stop ignoring the problems so many face. I agree with you and I think its why dems lost
Biden was a good president who did what he could to help. Manchin and Sinema screwed us. People who said greedflation wasn't real (it's price fixing) and bad feelings about the economy were only vibes didn't help us. They just made the poor feel abandoned
Yeah we need to hold fast to facts, not believe every babbling idiot who reminds me of the guy I saw ranting on a corner at himself and then he shit himself.
watched half that video. I have trouble with media that throws out a LOT of declarative, oversimplified statements, using flashing images that don't match... And yes, mainstream dems are WAY too right for me. But/and they are the only path we have, its up to us to hold their feet to the fire.
Unfortunately, Biden did not do what was needed to ensure the survival of our democracy. Namely, ensure Trump went to jail for January 6th and expand the Supreme Court.
I don't like that he (DJT) avoided any consequences of his actions, but the thought of relying solely on Public Opinion to determine guilt (or punishment) terrifies me.
Of course it's true, but Biden just stays quiet about it offering con man Trump to take all credit, he's already started. Where the fk are the MEGAPHONES??
Years ago I had a boss that also went to Wharton. He told me he was taught that you shoot 100 BB’s in the air and hope one hits something. 99 BB’s likely don’t.
You can only “bail out” people for so long. Chop off incomes and you cut back tax revenue. Curb back incomes, retail suffers. And don’t even get me started on his idiotic tariffs. He is going to torch the economy. Just like last time. I will be expecting your apology when it happens.
Trump claims he inherited “a mess” from Obama. When he trashes the economy for a second time he will have the press as his co-conspirators who said nothing about his lies about Obama’s economy. Irrefutable? Biden better watch his back.
But because we live in a selfish society, all people see is how inflation has effected them without understanding how inflation rose like it did. And those same people will never acknowledge this
On a side note I saw your name and thought HEY this dude has the same name as the robot on Futurama. Then I saw the rest of your name and thought THANK GOD I didn't say that out loud.
The economy has been good for the *median* American for ~18 months. Unf for Harris the median American hates inflation more than they like the opaque idea that the spending the created the inflation saved probably 10m people from losing their job.
It will last at least a year or two and tRump will claim credit for it all the way. After that we will see a steep decline and tRump will say it is because we elected more Dems in the midterm and/or he only has this term, so we need to change or suspend the COTUS.
Why can't those who voted for Felon Donald J. Trump have seen this. Thank you Elon, Jeff & Mark from hiding this truth from maga voters. Controlling this truth from the American so you all can make more millions at the expense of hard working families. Hopefully soon your damage will be realized.
Best economy the USA has ever had. And some people think Trump can do better. Others think Harris could do better. We need four more years of Biden, badly.
And you’re leaving hundreds of thousands of dead Palestinians, you are a senile monster. No-one should be in control of a country when they’re cognitively compromised. That’s you and that’s Trump.
The poor and delusional all voted for the FELON, thinking somehow he's going to "save" them, when in reality, he wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire.
Oh, it won’t last.
Until then Trump will take credit for Biden’s work and progress and when things start to deteriorate I say within six months, he will blame the democrats.
What are their skills? America is hiring big time. According to nonfarm payrolls, teachers, healthcare…may be out of luck in tech since it sounds like Trump is a big fan of visas and outsourcing. What is the skill set that is not being hired?
What's happening is that AI is being used to "grade" resumes before they are even seen by someone in HR. If a key word they are looking for isn't in your resume, it gets rejected. I'm 200% certain that they would have been hired within 3 months just 5 years ago.
And you did it all by not lying or not cheating!!! you’ll never get the credit now for everything that you did President Biden, but you will eventually get it a few years from now. Thank you!
He didn't DO anything for the people.....Trump won't DO anything for the people...what could Biden or Trump ever deserve credit for???? Get out of the clouds
Biden’s policies are bringing back chip manufacturing. The cap on Rx spending for seniors is going to help immensely. The infrastructure bill is creating a ton of jobs and growth. And on a personal note, Biden got me a 24% raise, $21k back pay, 10 year cap on healthcare cost and added benefits.
Agreed. I’m a Bernie supporter. I worked on his campaign in ‘16. And even I am impressed with everything Biden got done. Best president in my lifetime of 54yrs. Hands down.

War is expensive.
Be prepared to rub this shit in the face of every MAGA you encounter in the bread lines.

Now we will be sorely abused indefinitely because politics.😖

They manipulated it and made it wobble a bit, but the overall trend for most Americans is down.
I agree that the rich are getting richer. It's more than just rich people who need stocks to do well for our 401k's.
Social security may not he around when I retire.
And often state based.
You give the lower population no buffer for when the costs go up. And with little safety net, you get what's happening.
A strong economy with people left behind.
We could have had LESS Genocide with Biden!

It's been proven time & time again. Republicans just don't know how to govern & build.
All they know how to do is run up deficits & destroy everything.
As for cheese? Ask the billionaires, they have all the cheese.
No excuses. Just effective or ineffective. And Dems are ineffective.
They all seem to have forgotten that Trump left a mess.
Will our courts protect us is the question.
We will be in dire straits come 2027 and almost collapse as a country in 2028.
Inflation
Unemployment
Eggs

Let's see how we are doing in 6 months.
Also, not even the actual people believe that. Current polling says about 52%
#ThankYou #JoeBiden #KamalaHarris #POTUS #MadameVicePresident #DemocracyMatters
Biden is also how we got here...
He eats ice cream! And is like an old grandpa anyone could love!
He should be proud of his precious economy.
So many have died for it.
We all know that trump will claim this as his own. He'll be telling the world that he inherited a disaster, and made it slightly less disasterous.

Project 2025, nah fam, try Global Revolution 2025.
We get rid of the rich and greedy parasites, or we watch it all burn.
They can't take what isn't given, that's called MFing consent, and they gon' learn today
Nothing kills an economy faster than a Republican.
If "All Americans" continues to exclude people who have been traditionally part of the Democratic base, then there is no hope to defeat fascism. So please, I'm begging, pull your heads all the way out of your asses and look around.
Until Americans realize this fact, they'll continue to go insane while the world watches their country implode.
The economy means jack shit.
Equally, criminal sentencing requires the Judicial branch to determine specific laws were broken (not just Public Opinion).
Unfortunately solving the complexities of human nature & its role in the US legal system is too complicated for a simple BSky thread.
Let's see how the F-I-C does with it this time. He crashed it last time as I recall.....by ignoring covid.
#Bidenomics
Is that really how you want to spend your time?
I like pointing out that people who block are usually dumb.
Nobody will be able to buy anything. Walmart and Amazon will tank.
My guess anyway.
TAX THE RICH
WE ARE STRONGER TOGETHER💙👍😍☮️💪
STAY POSITIVE ... NEVER GIVE UP
Let's talk about Don old Trump's hush for money and the child exploitation and human trafficking with his friends Epstein and Diddy.
There will never not be people living in poverty as long as we are a Capitalist country.
Until then Trump will take credit for Biden’s work and progress and when things start to deteriorate I say within six months, he will blame the democrats.
