President Joe Biden had conspiracy theorists in a tizzy after posting what appeared to be his reaction to the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl win on Sunday night.
“Just like we drew it up,” Biden posted on X alongside a photo of “Dark Brandon,” the meme created by hardcore—and very online—supporters of Donald Trump that Biden and his team loved so much they adopted it as their own.
The post was apparently referencing far-right conspiracy theories which posit the NFL and high-level government operatives conspired to rig the Super Bowl in Kansas City’s favor to give maximum exposure to a yet-to-be-announced endorsement from Chiefs star Travis Kelce and his girlfriend Taylor Swift.
President Joe Biden to repeatedly ask his advisers: Why then are so many Americans still not feeling great about the economy?
Is that supposed to be your proof of Biden trying to convince us that everything is fine?
Because maybe you should have read the article to the end…
Actions speak louder than words my friend. Most people are still struggling with rent and food.
Bidenomics Is Working: The President’s Plan Grows the Economy from the Middle Out and Bottom Up—Not the Top Down
You seem to have forgotten what you said. You said this:
How does “Bidenomics is working” mean “everything is fine?” It doesn’t even mean “everything is better than it was.”
Sorry, I guess the subtle differences between the two sentiments are lost on me.
“The chemotherapy is working” doesn’t mean “the cancer is gone.”
The cancer is spreading and metastasising. Instead of cutting out the cancer, or using chemo, they are bragging about curing the ear infection. Great analogy, thank you.
Based on what metric? Homelessness? Because that is far from the only metric for an economy.
It’s a pretty important one, especially to the people that are becoming homeless.
“Why aren’t people feeling good about this?” is pretty much the polar opposite of “convincing us that everything is fine”. Trying to understand why people aren’t fine despite economic “indicators” is exactly what I want a leader to do.
