Have you noticed the political
paradox happening right now?
During the first two years of Joe
Biden’s presidency, Biden notched
massive achievements that any
President would envy-and earned
an approval rating that would make
them faint.

President Joe Biden Announces Re-Election Bid

The achievements list is long: the
greatest single year of job creation
in American history, the lowest
unemployment in 50 years, the
biggest yearly increase in U.S.
manufacturing jobs in 30 years, the
most successful American
vaccination program in history,
lowering prescription drug prices for
the elderly up to 75 percent, cutting
child poverty by 3 million kids, and
massively investing in fixing roads
and bridges.

And the political payoff? Biden’s
approval at 42 percent-only Trump,
Reagan, and Carter were lower at
this point of their Presidency-and a
Democratic base feeling decidedly
“meh.” Among young voters, the
supposed strength of the Left, a
meager 27 percent of Millennials
and 31 percent of Gen Z now
choose to identify as Democrats.
And the future inner core of the
party-young Black voters-is
drifting away.

What’s happening? We don’t know
for sure, but a strong possibility is
that Democrats have disillusioned
and confused voters by
overpromising and underdelivering.
