The Spin
Left narrative
Biden has succeeded in lifting people out of poverty, boosting employment, and reducing home foreclosures under challenging global circumstances. Dems need to focus on messaging to inform the American people of these achievements.
Right narrative
The Dems are portraying an extremely selective narrative. The American Rescue Plan Act was not a political success but a spending bill typical of the irresponsible economic responses common under Biden, even despite rising inflation.
