They put through the Inflation Reduction Act one year in. It just takes time for these things to take effect. And it did work.
But the Press wanted to keep talking about inflation as if it was Biden's fault and not how he brought it down.
Harris had policy and programs to help the middle class, the Press largely ignore it.
Trans issues was a purely Republican thing, and the Press dutifully kept it front and center.
