Don't understand why American people are judging President Biden so harshly as opposed to tyrant45.
If they are correct, it doesn't make sense. Anyone can see the profound goodness emanating from President Biden and Dr. Biden. This hatred is completely uncalled for and absurd.
The usual, lazy responses:

67. It really doesn't matter whose fault inflation is - whoever is in power will be blamed
Food prices and gas are biggies. I live rural so it now costs me $5.00 in gas for one trip to get my mail at the post office, $40 in gas to get groceries. Many rural people have to travel 40 or more miles each way to get groceries and go to jobs. Gas prices are disproportionately hurting rural people. Almost half of Americans do not own stock so they could care less about the stock market. Many Americans do not really pay that much attention to politics so their voting might not be rational, just emotional.
And of course, the obligatory

60. But, why are they enraged about gas prices but could care less about GOP slaughtering children?
That's just sick.
It's not the GOP slaughtering children, ****face.

43. "The economy is booming" - it doesn't matter
People can cite the employment numbers and various economic statistics all the live long day.
It doesn't matter.
What does matter is how people feel, what their lives are like day to day, what their wallets look like.
Right now, people aren't feeling great. Inflation is taking a bite out of everyone. Gas prices are denting everyone.
People know how much money is in their checking account at the end of the week. If that is significantly or noticeably less, then it's not good for whoever is in office. I know every single time I go to the store and see how much things cost vs. what they did a year ago, a little mental, "The ****?!" pings in my head.
It's largely not personal against President Biden. But it also doesn't matter if he is a good man. Jimmy Carter is an amazing human. Look how that went for him politically.
Whenever people complain about the situations with rising costs at the grocery store, the gas pump, or the rent checks, I always see these kinds of responses. "The economy is booming! Unemployment!"
That's not talking to people - that's talking at them. And people aren't so receptive to that.
Nobody wanted to hear what he had to say.
Look, I don't know if this one is a mole, but it's hilarious:
