When Americans listen to Kamala Harris’ acceptance speech tonight, they need to tune out the thrill-up-the-leg praise from the media and the audience’s stream of verbal bouquets and ask themselves one question: Are they better off today than they were four years ago.
For all but a few, the answer would be resounding “no.” In the only debate between President Jimmy Carter and challenger Ronald Reagan in the 1980 campaign, just days before the election, Reagan asked what the Harvard John F. Kennedy School of Government called “one of the most important campaign questions of all time: “Are you better off today than you were four years ago?” Voters said no, and sent Reagan to the White House with 489 electoral votes and sent Carter home with 49.
Both Biden and Harris have claimed that Bidenomics have worked.
It hit 68 in May, down for the fourth straight month.
Harris and Biden were handed an economy recovering from the authoritarian pandemic responses and put a pillow over its face.
As others are pointing out, if this administration had cured the economy, as Joe Biden claimed it had, why are price controls necessary to defeat inflation?
Adjusting for that, the real unemployment rate, which has never been below 4% while the Biden-Harris regime has been in office, would be 5.2% today.
