MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell is joined by Yale Professor Jeffrey Sonnenfeld to discuss the latest evidence of the successes of Biden's economic policies. Sonnenfeld says Biden is having the strongest positive effect on the economy of any president since FDR.
@bob_wiley @Saneless Why would Biden take credit for Trump trashing the economy, destroying jobs, and overall wrecking the nation?
He’s taking credit for people saying the economy is doing great. Republicans came up with the term “Bidenomics” early on in his presidency to make fun of him, and he’s now using it as a positive term as the election talks start up. If he is going to run on the back of “Bidenomics” being good for Americans, then he is taking credit for the current state of things and trying to paint it as a good thing. And if that’s the case, people should be upset.
So you acknowledge the republicans used the economy (which wasn’t his fault) against Biden, but you’re bothered that he said it’s now a strong point so he’s using it back at them to undo their bullshit early on?
Ok
You’re ignoring the context and the point of my comment. It’s only “strong” for Wall Street, while people are still hurting financially. If he’s using the economy as the backbone of his campaign, it seems like a bad plan. Claiming victory while people are having trouble affording food due to inflation is not going to be received well.
This is all politics man. Happens every election
