Yeah, but it's about messaging and PR. Many people perceive Trump to do better especially on economy, even though more debt is added to the national debt during his last presidency. People tend to prioritise economy more than other issues; and Biden isn't doing anything to market himself and his administration that they're do better on handling the economy.

Could someone link me the bar graph in the bottom most panel?

It would be nice to refer to when this is brought up by relatives.

I'm the opposite of a Trump supporter, but

  1. economic decisions have long latencies
  2. the improving curve of US economics started during Trump years and merely continued during Biden years
  3. economic decisions are largely made outside of the Executive Branch

I'm actually thrilled with Biden, I think he did a better job than I thought he would and regret calling him No Go Joe

You do know that it’s the people demanding and fighting for those things right? Biden only did the minimum while ignoring the peoples actual needs. He answers to his sponsors and his sponsors only. He spent billions on Ukraine and Israel while ignoring the millions of Americans who are worse off now than they were 4-8 years ago. No one is denying what he did. We’re saying it wasn’t enough.

You probably shouldn't open with unemployment rate to "prove" that a president did something since they have nothing to do with that. Also, great job both sidesing the far left and far right, oh enlightened centrist.

Not sure who you think The Left™ is but we're mostly angry about him supporting genocide. I guess because he did so those good things we should just ignore that?

"far left nutjobs think joe biden hasn't done anything, check out this list of things that are either fake, symbolic, or terrible"

The problem is that centrists seem to actually think the following are 'good' things:

  • Enabling and supplying Israeli genocide

  • Bombing Yemen for trying to interfere with the Israeli genocide

  • Prevented negotiations in Ukraine

  • Over a million COVID deaths

  • Most active border concentration camps ever

Yeah, even if you're somehow pro-genocide, he's not doing anything to stop this conflict from escalating into a full war in the middle east. Something Trump even managed to avoid doing despite doing some really stupid shit.
