Biden needs to get it together.
During a recent public appearance at the Philly Shipyard in Philadelphia, President Biden delivered a speech on his economic policies, commonly referred to as “Bidenomics.” However, his address sparked anger and concern among social media users.
According to Fox, Despite his upbeat attitude, Biden appeared to stumble over his words during the speech similar to how Kamala Harris often does when on camera. He emphasized that the middle class was not built by Wall Street, but rather by the middle class themselves, garnering mixed reactions on Twitter.
In his speech, Biden criticized “trickle-down economics,” recounting how his father supposedly suffered from its effects. This statement was met with skepticism, as some questioned the timing of the claim, given that it supposedly happened in the 1950s.

Twitter users were quick to highlight these and other gaffes, making the speech a subject of online discussion. Conservative blogger Mike LaChance sarcastically downplayed the concerns, while columnist David Marcus expressed his doubts about the historical accuracy of Biden’s account.
Moreover, despite the President’s claims that wages have increased, a Monmouth University poll indicated that 62% of respondents disapproved of Biden’s handling of inflation. A Twitter Community Note also provided evidence challenging Biden’s assertion, stating that real wages adjusted for inflation remained lower than pre-pandemic levels.

Nonetheless, President Biden continued to boast about “Bidenomics” and defended his economic plan, stating that it aimed to restore the American dream. He acknowledged that there was still work to be done in the economy and emphasized the need to persevere in achieving his vision.
In summary, President Biden’s recent speech on “Bidenomics” at the Philly Shipyard sparked controversy on social media, with critics questioning his statements about the middle class and wage increases. Despite the public criticism, Biden remained resolute in promoting his economic policies and his vision for the country’s future.
