President Biden's approval rating is low, and the lib media, including the New York Times quoted below, is among those who are perplexed about that because everything is "heading in the right direction":
Inflation at long last is down. So are gas prices and Covid deaths and violent crime and illegal immigration. Unemployment remains near record lows. The economy, meanwhile, is growing, wages are climbing, consumer confidence is rising and the stock market is surging.
For President Biden, many of the numbers that define an administration are finally heading in the right direction. Except one: his approval rating.
Despite the flurry of good news on economic and other domestic fronts in recent weeks and months, Mr. Biden’s poll numbers remain low. Just 39 percent approved of his performance in the latest survey by The New York Times and Siena College, far from the level that would typically give strategists confidence heading into a re-election campaign.
For starters, gas prices sure aren't going down where I live -- quite the opposite -- and does anybody from the Times ever go to a grocery store?

All this leads me to what Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said Democrats should be doing to help boost Biden's approval rating. No, not prohibit the purchase of garden seeds again, but rather being more aggressive in pointing out how great everything is to convince people to believe the Biden White House and not their lying wallets and purses:

The old election question is "are you better off than you were four years ago?" But all people need to do now is ask "am I better off than I was TWO years ago?" The answer for most (not counting "The Big Guy" or some insider traders in Congress) is a resounding "NO!"

Biden's approval remains low, all while the White House gaslights like crazy with all the "Bidenomics" brags that are total BS, and Whitmer thinks they need to crank it up a notch?
Name one honestly! She cant because there aren’t any. https://t.co/mjs2a4qLbs

I'm laughing so hard at Whitmer that I might need to borrow her Fauci pillow to dab my tears. Besides, shouldn't Whitmer be worrying about her own state right now?

Maybe Whitmer's just not doing a good job of explaining the "great victories" she's brought to her state.
