During his State of the Union Address:
You can try to reform the Democrats all you want, and I legitimately wish you luck, but I'm pretty pessimistic that swaping them out will do anything. They have already shown that they would rather lose, than let anyone with any principles have power in their party.
Honestly, I hadn't even processed that because it's such boilerplate fluff, but you're right. Biden did indeed inherit an economy on the brink, and he deserves some amount of credit for the "soft landing," but he definitely didn't do enough to materially help low and middle income folks as he implies in that speech.
Still, he wasn't telling voters that the problems were over. He was telling other rich people (Congress), and for them the economy was (and still is) pretty good. If you were to ask him, I wonder if he wouldn't say that that's the difference.
I still think the worst failure of Biden's presidency was not prosecuting Trump, though.
