Biden’s statements are fueling intense scrutiny and debate over Biden’s economic management. Voters are not certain if the President is confused or intentionally misleading.

Since taking office, President Biden has repeatedly emphasized his administration’s achievements in job creation and combating inflation. In an interview with CNN’s Erin Burnett, Biden repeated this idea. And insisted the economic landscape was terrible when he became president.

His team has stopped using the term “Bidenomics” to distance the president from negative economic indicators. Despite facing criticism and skepticism he continues to defend his policies. And try to contrast his progress to Trump.

According to Biden, the American economy has experienced a significant turnaround under his leadership. He pointed to various indicators, including job growth, as evidence of progress. However, critics argue that persistent inflation, rising costs and overall economic instability are big issues.

Burnett interviewed Biden in Wisconsin, a swing-state where the Quinnipiac polls have Biden with 50% support among registered voters while Trump has only 44%.
