What Does Bidenomics Mean to Voters?

biden speaking about bidenomics

“Bidenomics is about the future,” President Biden declared in a speech to his supporters. “Bidenomics is just another way of saying: restore the American dream,” the President boasted during a carefully scripted tour around the country. During multiple stops, President Biden claimed that his policies have helped the economy while promoting two of his supposed signature accomplishments: the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA).  

Meanwhile, Americans hear the Washington talk and are having a tough time matching those words to their realities and even liberal news outlets are having a hard time covering for Biden. In fact, 81% of registered voters said the condition of the U.S. economy was either “Fair” or “Poor,” compared with just 19% who said it was “Good” or “Excellent, according to a The New York Times and Siena College survey,” CNBC News reported. This bad news from Biden shows major electoral trouble brewing for Democrats. The same survey found former President Trump leading Biden in hypothetical matchups in the key battleground states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Georgia and Nevada.

President Biden’s poll numbers are in the tank due to several factors including increasing concern about illegal immigration and the U.S. economy. To most Americans, Bidenomics means out of control inflation, historically high home prices, more American household debt, higher gas prices, and a brazen open-borders style immigration policy. Take Biden’s tax plan for example, which fortunately for the country, was largely thwarted at the end of the 117th Congress by moderate Democrats like retiring Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Independent Kirsten Sinema (I-AZ). The President proposed hiking business taxes across the board, increasing the death tax, taxing unrealized capital gains, and creating a new surtax on business owners among over 30 other tax hikes. It is jarring to imagine how much worse the economy would be if President Biden’s full tax agenda were passed into law.

Some of the people hardest hit by President Biden’s economic policies have been seniors, many of whom are on fixed incomes and have limited earning potential. Those same seniors have seen their retirement accounts depleted, a sluggish and volatile stock market, and near 10% cost of living increase over the last year alone. An August poll by McLaughlin & Associates showed that an overwhelming majority of voters 55 and older believe the so-called Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), was a “failure,” including a majority of Democrats polled. “The Biden White House is holding a celebration for a bill that older Americans overwhelmingly have experienced as a failure,” Phil Kerpen, the president of American Commitment said of Biden’s victory tour. With these troubling numbers for Biden in mind, it certainly does not seem like voters are buying into the administration’s Bidenomics rhetoric.

This upcoming election year will be the ultimate test for Biden’s failed economic agenda. When voters hear White House officials talk about Bidenomics, what they hear and what they see are two very different things. Will small business owners across the country really be in favor of policies that hurt their businesses? Will seniors on fixed incomes turn a blind eye to the massive inflation driving up their gas and grocery bills? The writing on the wall does not look good for Democrats. During next year’s election season AMAC Action is committed to helping voters learn the truth about the failure of Bidenomics and will oppose all last-ditch efforts by this administration to increase taxes on the American people.

America needs people in government who recognize that the USA is God’s country, unique in the world because it is the only country that has a republican form of government in which men have RIGHTS ENDOWED BY THE CREATOR that the government was instituted to secure. Without consent of the governed, all that government may do is adjudicate disputes, prosecute criminals, and defend against all enemies foreign and domestic. It cannot tax, govern, or regulate endowed rights that it was created to secure. In addition, the American people are sovereigns without subjects, and their government is actually their servant. (Unless one consents to be governed, then one descends to subject and the government becomes sovereign). Biden is part of the New Order, the One World Government, the Great Reset which will make ALL within it their subjects, controlled by the WEF, the UN, the WHO, the CFR. Readers unfamiliar with these entities need to become familiar with UN Agenda 2030 and Claus Schwab’s white paper outlining the plans to subjugate the population of the planet. DO NOT give your consent to these evil entities.

Bidenomics to voters simply means that the Ds will have to cheat even more this election than they did in the 2020 one.

I know that every time there is a ‘comprehensive’ bill that comes from the White House, I know it’s time to look it over carefully to see how badly it’s going to affect me, personally!!! As an example, the “Inflation Reduction Act” is a misnomer intended to mislead Americans, that had absolutely nothing to do with reducing inflation but everything to do with the green energy agenda of the radical left and environmentalists!!! And I’m still not sure that anyone in Congress really reads these “comprehensive” bills anyway since they are usually thousands of pages long filled with ridiculous legalese that only a lawyer would understand and maybe not even them!!!
I realize that Joe is not in charge, he is a puppet, a figurine for the Democrats and that Jill is “managing” Joe and his time but she is also guilty of telling him lies about how awesome of a job he is doing!!! That’s a disservice to Joe, to the Congress and to the American people!!! Jill, do you realize that there are 10+ million more people in our country than when your husband first took office?? Jill, does Joe know that??? Does Joe know how badly this is affecting every aspect of every state in the union, especially the “sanctuary states and cities”??? Does Joe even give a crap about America, Jill??? Do you??? It doesn’t seem like it when you care more about illegals and their care than you do about our own citizens and their care!!! Joe’s Bidenomics isn’t helping anyone but the already wealthy and that’s typical for a Democrat run government!!!

Bidenomics also means grown children living in the same household as their parents because housing is unaffordable. Even though I love having 3 generations under one roof, it’s become a financial necessity under this administration’s economic policies.

Well, my wife has passed. When ill a suggested treatment plan was put forth by the staff at the Mayo Hospital in Rochester for which Medicare from whom she had disability coverage, refused to pay for as their underwriters deemed the treatment “experimental”. Well at least Medicare forked out for hospice care which, without the hope the suggested treatment regimen provided was of course upcoming.
We have no money to pay for treatment for an ill 63 year old career Nurse Practioner but we have enough funds and our Drooler in Chief is begging for some 60 BILLION more to go to the corrupt Nazis in Ukraine.
God bless America

Joe Biden lives in a different dementia where reality doesn’t exist. Bidenomics means everything costs more and I have less money. The only “American Dream” I have these days is FJB out of office in 2024!

Totally unbelievable. This dumbas$ is ruining the country. Bidenomics is only making him and his family rich. How exactly is the economy ever going to be good when he let 10 million illegal invaders come here. Who is going to pay for all these people? We are! Where are they going to live? Where are they going to eat? Work etc. We are in big trouble!

Before you listen to Joey’s BS compare all his numbers to 2019. The economy was never better untill the Communist Chinese party released it’s Bio Weapon, the CCP-19-Virus on America and the world. They did it to Destroy President Trump’s economy in an effort to unseat him as president. They succeeded with the help of the DNC and the Deep State swamp.

With Bidenomics hard working middle class families get to go on expensive trips. Now they get to at least every week or two. Unfortunately it’s to the gas station and grocery stores.

All of this is a smokescreen!!! OPEN YOUR EYES!!!
There is ONLY ONE ISSUE everyone needs to understand!
IF TEXAS GOES BLUE (because of undocumented aliens being allowed to vote or other Democrat shenanigans) WE WILL NEVER GET THE COUNTRY BACK TO WHAT IT WAS UNDER TRUMP OR BEFORE!
That’s all anyone needs to know! This should be the sole issue conservatives vote upon. BIDEN’S OPEN BORDER POLICY is the single greatest strategy and ploy that Obama and the Progressives have implemented. And don’t think for a second this was sleepy Joe’s idea! Obama, Jarrett, Rice, and other socialist operatives are orchestrating this!
IT’S WORKING BECAUSE WE DON’T FOCUS ON FORCING THE BORDER ISSUE EVERY FREAKING DAY!
There have been at least 10 million illegal invaders allowed into our country since this senile old fool has been in office! It’s what the Democrats have always wanted – an unstoppable supply of guaranteed Liberal voters!!! Do you think that now that they are all in here, DEMOCRATS WEREN’T going to eventually give them licenses, benefits, and allow them to vote? And in case we said “no” to voting…they will simply make sure VOTING will be allowed by paper ballot!
WE WILL LOSE OUR COUNTRY BECAUSE OF GOP NAIVITY AND CONTINUED LIBERAL TREACHERY!!
WAKE UP!! This isn’t grade school folks – THE WAR HAS ALREADY STARTED!

Spell it Bidumbnomics !! It makes much more sense. With a 17,8 % cumulative Inflation rate, costing the average family over $1,000 more a month . I shop at Sam’s Club once a month, used to cost $150 a trip, now I’m buying less and it’s $ 450- $500 ! Dog food (when in stock ) went from $ 30 to $ 55, and my Corgies like to eat, Most meat products are not always on stock, if the have it m it’s double the former prices. Eggs went from $.79 / doz. to $2.99 with limits. Dementia Joe says lowest inflation in 40 years, he drained the SPR to drop gas prices for the midterm elections, down to 15 % of full. TRUMP filled the SPR when we were drilling and oil was cheap and USA produced. Now with wars on 2 fronts, O’Biden wants to refill with oil from enemies like Venezuela and Iran ? I worked for 55 years, retired at 70, now I get a 3.2 % COL SS raise ? That gang is Bidumb-nomics in a nut-shell !!.

The issue of “Bidentity,” who is Biden, is far more significant than the fact that gas prices, under Trump, were, in some places, below $2.00 per gallon at the end of his term and, locally, the lowest gas price, under “Bidenomics” is currently, $3.14 per gallon. To say nothing of prices on other consumer goods such as food. Immigration was controlled and a wall was being built under Trump, and under Biden, we have seen upwards of 10 million, illegal aliens come across the border. How many unaccounted-for is anyone’s guess.
The significant difference is the consequences of policies (consider Afghanistan) which have been allowed or implemented since Biden took office. Using social conditions in Europe as an indicator and youtube reports as sources of information from individuals who are not motivated by a corporate, news-network paycheck, the transitioning to greater “diversity” is problematic for all and seems to affirm the importance of cultural conformity for the security of nations. Indeed, the causes for the war between Russia and Ukraine must be seen as cultural. Consistent with causing the crisis to “fix” the problem, the liberals hold on power is achieved by division and the pretense of representation. All the while, it is the constitutional rule of law which suffers. People need to reread the Preamble to the Constitution and, always, use the purposes given for the creation of the country as a measuring tool for every law that is passed in fulfillment of those purposes.

It’s a meaningless catch phrase. The economy is driven by the demand for consumer goods and the satisfaction of the needs of people. Other than the radical changes made to the energy industry, which have played havoc with the price of petroleum-based fuels, Bidenomics means nothing.

The Inflation Reduction Act did achieve the socialists’ intended goal. It created more inflation. It reduced the value of the U.S. dollar. Congressional Democrats are acting like the American people won’t notice.

Joe Biden, standing at the podium, recently said “Bidenomics is just another way of saying: Restore the American Dream.” That sounds eerily similar to Donald Trump’s Make America Great Again. Perhaps Joe Biden couldn’t remember what Trump said or what MAGA stands for.
