President Joe Biden has opened a new line of attack against former President Donald Trump. At a campaign fundraiser in the Dallas area on Wednesday, Biden asked and answered the classic “are you better off today than you were four years ago” question to remind voters of what it was like when Trump w
I have more money and better credit than four years ago, yet im further away from buying a house or even a new car than I was 4 years ago, so honestly nothing really changed in the personal quality of life category. My salary went up, and so did the carrot on the stick they’ve been dangling out of my reach for decades. I feel like this question isn’t a great measure for Bidens campaign.
So you’re better off and still feel like you’re on a treadmill. That makes sense.
And yeah, I wouldn’t pose the question like that either. Not enough has been done. The minimum wage is the same. I don’t fault him for that but it would be huge for those who struggle the most.
It has to be a comparison with what the other side has to offer.
My wealth grew less than inflation so theres that too. In absolute terms im better off but factoring in everything I don’t think anything changed really, credit score did but thats hardly as much Biden, or any president, as it is some contested school debt notes falling off the reportable period because its been to long.
