Gee! Could “Bidenomics” Be Backfiring?

(AmericanProsperity.com) – According to different reports published on September 29 and October 1, many Democrats are worried that President Joe Biden’s constant use of the term “Bidenomics” could have been a serious mistake.

Axios also noted that even when inflation has been partially controlled and unemployment is in low numbers, prominent Democratic leaders are openly criticizing the strategy of President Biden’s campaign. They argued the campaign is denying the economic reality of most Americans, and claimed this is something that Republican candidate and former President Donald Trump could capitalize in a hypothetical rematch of the 2020 presidential election. A former spokesman for First Lady Jill Biden named Michae LaRosa said the president never understood the endgame behind branding an economy in “your name” when this one hasn’t shown a full recovery yet.

The media outlet pointed out that people familiar with the backchanneling revealed that some of these allies have raised concerns about the phrase to some top White House officials and members of the campaign.
Nevada Democratic Representative Steven Horsford told Politico that the campaign needs to do a “better job framing.
