US ties the record for the longest, consecutive, monthly streak of sub-4% unemployment

If Biden loses, part of it will be because unlike Trump and Obama, he is terrible at taking credit for good things that happen under his administration. Biden's mostly been an effective president but he a terrible messenger. You can bet that if Trump wins, he'll take credit when inflation inevitably goes down and that will not be a good look for Democrats.

Inflation is currently low enough that it probably wouldn't go much further down under Trump and his proposed import taxes and deportation of the ag workforce, if enacted, would make prices go up again.

But yes, Biden's administration is bad at capitalizing on these things. It's difficult to do when they don't gain traction in the media ecosystem. Stories about good news don't get clicks and don't get shared on social media, so journalists, media influencers, and news outlets don't have as much incentive to publish them. NGOs and activists are more interested in aesthetics of problems that necessitate their existence than progress on fighting the issues, so they will ignore good news as well. And all of this is assuming that everybody is acting in good faith, which in many cases they aren't.

I'm sorry but where on earth are you getting this information? Inflation is at record highs now and the Fed is far likelier to raise interest rates than lower them at this point.

No he’s not. If you follow him or VP on social media, he talks about his economic successes all the time. And administration officials are at every major ribbon cutting — I was at one at a factory in PA just last week. And local news cameras were there.


Unfortunately it’s the public that doesn’t want to acknowledge these successes and I’m not sure why.

Because Biden doesn't really have his own "brand," for lack of a better word. Remember that he was only nominated because the non-Bernie candidates ratf#cked him before Super Tuesday. Which is all fine and dandy but if Biden ends up being a one-term president and loses to Donald Trump, you can't just blame the public. A President Sanders would have a loyal following that Biden simply lacks. That's just how politics works in this day and age.

Failure to capitalize on one's accomplishments is a sign of a weak leader. The media absolutely has a role in this because they want Trump to win, but the buck stops with the president regardless. The fact that Biden currently has approval numbers matching those of Bush's second term can't solely be attributed to the public or the media.

Imagine believing all that.

Thanks for the daily insult, Greece.

That's not even true. Biden had an edge that was obscured because none of his most favorable states voted early and he was declared a loser much too early. Sanders always intended to win the nomination with 30% or less which was a poor strategy. The candidates who knew they had no chance going into Super Tuesday endorsed the candidate they knew could win a general election and there was nothing underhanded about doing that.

Sanders' following would have not lasted when he failed to deliver on all of his campaign promises.

Trump didn't deliver on all of his campaign promises either. Guess what. People still voted for him. Most presidents are lucky to accomplish 33% of what they campaigned on due to the nature of checks and balances.

Sanders supporters aren't the same as Trump supporters. Trump delivered for them through rhetoric. Sanders supporters want free healthcare, free college, etc. and would have been undoubtedly disillusioned by not getting these things.

Sanders would've spent much of his term campaigning against Congress and the blame would be shifted to them. Everyone who supported him except for Terminally Online communists would vote to reelect him anyway. And for all his flaws, Sanders is still better at engaging with voters than Biden is. And that's a fairly low bar since Pete Buttigieg supporters were far more enthusiastic about their candidate than Biden's.
