Terrible Foreign Policy ——————
Russo - Ukraine War
Israel - Palestine War
Spratly Islands Crisis
Taiwan Crisis
Migrant Crisis
North Korean diplomacy at it worst state
INSANE INFLATION
came and went
I am genuinely asking because my knowledge on economics is elementary at best, but how has Biden's policy directly influenced inflation as well as any variables before his presidency, both Trump's policy as well as the effects the pandemic inevitably had?

the influence presidents have on the economy is VASTLY overrated.
i think the stuff he's done with unions makes him better than any president we've had in my lifetime
more of the same on foreign policy like every president we've had for the last 100 years honestly, what would have Trump done that wouldn't have been exactly the same?
media summits with leaders? that do nothing lmao
all the things you listed are policies the US has had in place for decades
Inflation and the terrible economy has little to do with the policy of the current president besides the interest rate which has a slight effect on that, only the uninformed/misinformed would think that is something to do with his policies and not decades of other events/policies
Underrated tbh

yeah this basically
they have a ton of power over certain federal/US based things like antitrust, corruption, unions, enforcing regulations, interest rates
but giving credit or blaming every macro-economic global event on the president is a lack of education
uninformed/misinformed
the president isn't a god/king

yeah and u can shave interest rates off that list lol the fed is independent. the most a president can do is make a big stink and hope it gets someone over there to change their mind. that's what trump tried to do lol
mad interesting how biden's made usa into the world's biggest oil producer by miles and he's done that by completely abandoning any pretense of protecting the environment. i mean his administration has actually genuinely impacted this in a meaningful way, but the right wing media will still assume he's a tree-hugging liberal raising gas prices by enforcing regulations. the left-wing media won't even mention it.
kind of a genius play. both sides of the media world lose by reporting on it, so it goes unnoticed

the FED isn't really independent in my view, a lot of presidents like Biden just happen to let them work independent but Trump and others in history have heavily influenced what they do (Nixon & LBJ come to mind)
I don't buy that logic I see it pushed hard in media though
nothing in the government could ever be independent/non-political that really doesn't make any sense, it's the same cover the courts hide behind
the FED like the SCOTUS is influenced heavily by the president, congress, lobbyists etc
they can do more than raise a stink lol.. a majority of the FED VOTING board chairs can be replaced by the president, that gives the president power over them despite what the media may say and congress even has full control over it existing at all
an example, they raised rates during Trump's presidency.. raising rates would have been really good because then we'd have more flexibility if something happened like COVID but Trump threatened to replace the FED chair on Twitter and rates stopped going up
so it's more than just raising a stink & hoping if the president can replace a majority of the voting board
something similar happened under Nixon
rates aren't even the biggest factor on the economy tho just a piece of the puzzle
but anyways lol I agree, the power of the budget lies with the House and we're just talking about the economy in the US, so many things other countries also impact it massively..
he’s done a lot more than i thought he would, made some progress that makes him feel almost more left than Obama, and that’s not something I thought i’d ever say, esp back during the election
getting the drone wars down and the amount of debt he’s cancelled (almost 127 billion iirc) is actually insane for what i thought would be a doddering presidency where he did nothing and kamala (or someone) took the reigns. his biggest issue is more just that he’s an old nigga (ie, his pro-israel statements), but even then he seems willing to listen and change and walk back a lot of that
can’t speak to the environmental aspect ppl have been talking itt and i’m sure like w every president there’s some heinous s*** he’s been behind that i’m not aware of (and would love to b educated if anyone knows), but it has been way better than i ever could’ve expected tbh. economy/inflation wise he quite literally inherited the world in the middle of a pandemic so i’m not sure how much of that i can attribute to him
edit: what he’s doing with the border wall s*** is beyond lame though, never expected that either

Well under Biden inflation has essentially halted at this point so
do u rlly blame those international conflicts on biden
I thought he was complaining about giving money to Ukraine but then I saw Palestine/Israel
