Once again stupid click bait title. The article says that the US manufacturing index decreased along with some of the other major world producers, so how is this failed “Bidenomics”? Article doesn’t take into the fact that the world economy contracted and 1 year out from an unprecedented global disease osmt emoguh time to get back to am over inflated 2019 economy.

It might be a slow return post pandemic, but moves like the UAW recent contract (yet to voted on by the members) that guarantees all production will happen in the US and Biden signing a bill that requires all electric vehicle production to be at home are definitely steps in the right direction that no modern conservative president would have ever signed or endorsed.

Not to say that his policies are great, he flopped on majority of his own policy promises, but even partial wins are better than alternatives of MAGA policies. MAGA acronym and policies it represents are in contradiction.
