President Biden criticized news coverage of the U.S. economy as he faces growing backlash from voters over his handling of inflation. In brief remarks Saturday before boarding the presidential heli…
Totally! In the context of Biden’s economic policies, generally, I think it reflects favorably for him.
I would like to see corporations banned from purchasing single family homes, massive rent control measures, etc. But these aren’t things I can expect Biden to achieve unilaterally or quickly.

You’re once again looking at this in a vacuum.
You can’t take credit for things you haven’t done.
But you can discredit somebody for bad things they’re planning to do (looking at a certain insurrectionist)
