The New York Times has been consistently pushing the narrative that President Biden’s low poll numbers in comparison to Donald Trump’s are due to voters forgetting the chaotic Trump years.
They recently highlighted a survey showing Trump leading in swing states, with only a small percentage of respondents mentioning Covid or the Capitol riot when asked about Trump’s presidency. The media’s obsession with chaos doesn’t match up with what voters are actually going through under the current administration.
While the Times and other outlets continue to emphasize chaos, real chaos is evident in issues like economic struggle, rising debt, decaying downtowns, and border problems. These critical issues are often overlooked by the media, who prefer to focus on sensationalized stories that don’t impact everyday Americans. The novelty of Trump’s personality has worn off, and voters now recognize the true chaos they are facing under the current administration.
Despite the media’s fixation on norms and unprecedented events, voters are experiencing real chaos in their lives.
