Another lie i keep hearing on cable news is that Obama didn't sell the stimulus and the ACA. Obama sold both, even in primetime. He traveled the country as swell. They won't mentioned to role that race played. It's still playing a role. Or many there's a memory loss epidemic.
In fact, Obama was usually alone in selling everything. Many of the white democrats like Schumer treated him like he had the plague. Schumer said they ACA shouldn't have passed. The difference between the way are embracing Biden is clear. I'm gonna point it out.
The media and many on the left have created an entire bullshit narrative on how Obama sold bills. They've also completely forgotten the fact that he needed GOP votes out of the gate to pass the stimulus. He needed Scott Brown for Dodd-Frank, because Feingold threw a hissy fit.
Conserva-Dems and the Senate killed additional jobs bills passed by Pelosi and the House. Obama keeps getting blamed for the actions of congress. Conserva-Dems just killed parts of Biden's bill, yet he doesn't seem to be getting blamed for it.

Obama sold the stimulus in primetime. He traveled the country making speeches as well, yet the BS about him not selling it continues. He also passed it while the economy crashing, so everyone knew it was necessary. Many opposed it simply, because he was Black. #inners
The other BS narrative is that it wasn't big enough.. Franken and another Dem weren't seated yet. He needed two republicans to pass it, he got three. They wouldn't support more. And guess what? It worked. It prevented a depression. I'm tired of the lies. #inners
The Obama stimulus saved towns like Elkhart, Indiana. He visited those cities, including Elkhart. They knew who and what saved their economies. They still voted GOP. He saved the auto industry. I remember a worker saying he was voting for Romney in 2012, knowing that. #inners
