My thing with Biden Defenders is I am perfectly fine with the true believers running with these “great Biden numbers” due to Trumps last year dealing with Covid.

We all know (including them) it’s not working and the clearest example of this is Everytime a journalist does a “man on the street” interview in urban areas right now— minorities have been saying things you wouldn’t dream of believing were possible even 2 years ago.


It’s usually goes something like “at least with Trump we could buy a hamburger for less than $10 dollars.” All the typical “Trumps a racist” not to mention all the macro economic arguments (like the one thrown out by the OP) goes out the window when the man on the street is struggling to even buy a hamburger when 4 years ago he simply was not having that issue.

And that isn’t just anecdotal stories— the polls in minority communities are bearing this out time and time again oh and by the way— Trump doesn’t need a majority of minorities to vote for him— he doesn’t even need a lot more to vote for him— he really just needs enough to STAY HOME— sort of like they did in 2016– and Trump wins.

Biden's most recent numbers are a sham. I saw an economist break this down and the BLS numbers are cooked. First, they shortened the work week to 34 hours, so it would appear there was "hourly wage growth". Then, they jacked with the job numbers to make it look like there was higher than expected job growth, when in fact, private sector jobs did not grow at all.
