Under Trump my apartment went from 2000 to 3100 a month.
Another 4 years of Trump and you could be paying north of 6k so it isn't all bad

Media needs it to be close for business, amongst other things.

that's fair.
Thats more about peoples memories tho. shyt spiked under Trump as well versus the Obama era.
A big issue is the media's view of "the economy" isn't the same for regular people, but regular people subscribe to the media view.
Biden is doing bad with the economy too, but Trump's economy was also shytty for regular people. So was Obama's.

This thread reads like a deja vu
Culture wars/“wokeness” are only the republicans obsession
Nobody mentally well is voting on culture wars or even about them daily

People are dumb and the media knows it.
Believe the polls brehs
I think that Biden's last year two of presidency has become a long-form version of Clinton's run-up to the 2016 election.
Every gaffe goes global, while every positive aspect is ignored. Not to say that it is the fault of the media necessarily.
I'm admittedly removed from the day-to-day, but my limited perspective is that the mainstream news is not as "#bothsides" as they were in 2016, but the negative spin on everything Biden went from being telegraphed by Fox News clips, to a more covert operation.
My uneducated guess is that Fox realized that while older people are susceptible to echo chambers thru Facebook, younger people were just as susceptible to Social Media influencers. Not the likes of Kim K, but the more subtle influential figures that have your ear on a regular basis... the meme account that lobs a few questionable takes on liberals occasionally, the streamer that screams racist stuff as a joke, the YouTube channel that is 'apolitical' but always talking about the mainstream media bias, the podcast hosts that is just asking questions, etc.
It's probably a little too conspiratorial to put it all on Fox News. It's cool to be contrarian in spite of being misinformed nowadays because it brings in a larger audience. That's how most of the Republican party won their primaries, so it makes sense that their constituents are using it to market themselves on social media.
Within the past week, I've seem hot-tales classifying Biden as racist, anti-immigration, cares more about immigrants that black ppl, working against union workers, etc. Anyone politically-inclined knows how ironic these takes are, while anyone looking at the polls realized how frustrating it is.
There are a lot more echo chambers to contend with and it's harder to state facts when someone has been fed weekly memes from the red-pilled manosphere/reparations-instead-of-immigration black nationalists/Hunter Biden's laptop crowds.

The economy vote is always feelings based. Doesn't matter what the numbers say if people feel like it's bad, it's bad.
Economy under Obama is one of the major reasons why we got Trump. That's when we supposedly had a 'good' economy but people were still dissatisfied. Trump continued Obama's trajectory, unemployment numbers going down and stock market going up but regular people were still suffering.
Now with inflation and current prices, people remember those Obama/Trump economies as good in hindsight. What hurts Biden the most is the fact that COVID years were great economically for people and now all those financial programs have been phased out. So they're getting double the hurt.
Biden is not doing himself any favors by running on 'Bidenomics'
that would be like Trump running on restricting abortions (which he might be dumb enough to do).
something that i heard is that for these polls, hardly anyone young is answering these pollsters because they call from unrecognized numbers.
