Looking at the comments, it seems empirical proof isn't what it used to be.
I found this interesting because the author pointed at the center left as the cause of driving a misunderstanding of the Biden economy. In addition, it mentions that Progressives, whose economic policies Biden used, have not defended them.
The problem isn't Biden's handling of the economy. It's his signaling that he sees it as a solved issue and we're all okay again. When in reality 63 percent of the country is still struggling.
You can try to use top level stats to gas light people all day long but we have eyes. If Biden would just stop trying to take a victory lap for one second he wouldn't be getting booed about it.
Stats are stats. Feelings are feelings.
Lmao. Yes over half the country struggling to pay for things is just feelings.
See you say half. That's not a stat. That's a feeling
And your donkeyball tonsil hockey is only a little tedious as, apparently, your only party trick.
Seriously though, if you're gonna jerk off to the fantasies you're collecting in your post history, maybe do it without the rest of Lemmy forced to watch? Don't mean to yuck your yum and all, but: thafuq is wrong with you?
I bet you think you're clever when you drink.
