U·S politics
« Mr. Biden has centered his re-election campaign around the idea of “Bidenomics,” his record of infrastructure, high tech and clean energy spending aimed at creating good industrial jobs and shrinking income inequality. Despite those broad policies, Mr. Potrykus [68, a longtime electrician in the Ford plant], eyeing his own expenses, said he didn’t see either Democrats or Republicans as fighting for the working class.
“I don’t think either party is really interested in that,” he said. “It’s a war on us now. You’ve got the super rich and then you’ve got the poor.” »

@Lady interesting move to try to run on his economic pawlicies because while it is true that the actual investments made in the economy during the recession made it grow out of it much faster than the 2008 one did, i don’t think the public at large really understands this, nor would they care,

@aescling he’s running on the economy because it’s going to be a major issue in battleground states

@Satsuma @aescling well in this case tho they’re also comparing it with a lived reality under Trump which many aren’t fond of either
