Let's talk Bidenomics

Just wanted to get that word out there, as should we all. Our President took back the term from repuQs, who were starting to use it in a derogatory fashion. With news like today’s growth exceeding expectations, hell YES we want to talk about it!

RepuQs are trying to say the economy is in the crapper, and in many places in the industrialized world, recession looms. We keep chooglin’ along, thanks in no small part to our President’s bills that harken back to legislation passed during FDR’s administration. I shudder to think how the economy would look under the loser.

I’m going to tout this administration’s accomplishments at every opportunity, and Bidenomics is a term I will use proudly. I’ll say, bring your receipts, show your math. Show me a plan. Remember those?

1. He is dismantling Trickle Down Economics!

I saw him take this tact this week and loved it. It makes a fantastic campaign slogan too. "Help me end Trickle Down!"

Biden has done more for working people than any President since FDR. Trickle Down Economics is a plague that every working American understands is what destroyed the Middle Class. Clinton, nor Obama took it on head on, Biden is doing so with policy, and now he's starting to talk about it too.

"END TRICKLE DOWN" is a winning strategy, if Biden goes with that as the central theme of his re-election campaign, he's going to win in a landslide.

Austerity has never worked, so drop the subject, please.

Mark your calendars: President Joe Biden will join “Deadline: White House” on Thursday for a historic live interview.

Nicolle’s exclusive one-on-one with the president comes at a crucial time for democracy, as threats loom large — both domestically and abroad — and the Supreme Court term nears its end. The interview in New York will take place at 4:00 p.m. ET on Thursday, hours after the justices hand down decisions that morning.

by predicting that our President will roll out an outline of Bidenomics 2.0 shortly. Show up repuQs for having nothing to offer.

9. I hope we can manage this. trump actually won in an improving economy...

Things were moving slowly, and was focused in diverse areas that not all people joined into, with repubs in Congress riding the brakes on the Obama recovery. Throw in some shenanigans and trump won enough electoral votes to "win."

The Biden economy is doing much better, and is far more diverse, and includes far more people than back then.

Yes, we need to own this and scream it from the rooftops. Joe really did do this!

14. A republican downturn probably won't hurt him much...

at least not as much as someone in the lower quintiles. Rich people tend to like austerity because it generally doesn't apply to them.
