Not a whole lot of\u200b trickle-down ended up on my\u200c dad&#8217;s\u200b kitchen table \u200das he busted his neck. So\u2064 we&#8217;re \u2063changing that. \u2062Replacing trickle-down economics with what everyone on Wall Street is referring to these days as Bidenomics. And guess what? It&#8217;s working,&#8221; the president\u200c said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Biden has \u200clong \u200dchampioned himself\u200d as the most\u2062 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/team-biden-hopeful-economic-outlook-brightening-the-polls-dont-tell-the-full-story-2\/\" title=\"Biden's team optimistic about improving economy: Polls don't reveal everything.\">pro-union \u200dpresident<\/a> in America&#8217;s history, which he sought \u2063to highlight during his \u2062speech \u200din Philadelphia as more unions endorse his reelection campaign. Labor unions remain one of the \u200dmost politically active Democratic constituencies, and they will be critical to Biden&#8217;s\u2063 2024 campaign.<\/p>\n<p>The\u200c highly important AFL-CIO union voted to endorse Biden in June, \u2063as did\u2063 the American Federation \u200cof State, County and Municipal Employees. &#8220;There\u2019s absolutely \u200dno \u200dquestion that Joe Biden is the most <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/labor-board-dismisses-union-misconduct-complaints-following-biden-purge\/\" title=\"Labor Board Dismisses Union Misconduct Complaints Following Biden Purge\">pro-union president<\/a> in our lifetimes,&#8221; AFL-CIO President Liz Shuler said. &#8220;From bringing manufacturing jobs home to America to protecting our pensions and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/house-dems-vote-to-adopt-3-5t-budget-resolution-move-forward-with-big-spending-agenda\/\" title=\"House Dems vote to adopt .5T budget resolution, move forward with big spending agenda\">making historic investments<\/a> in infrastructure, clean energy, and education,\u200c we\u2019ve never seen a president work \u200bso tirelessly to rebuild our economy\u2063 from the bottom up and middle out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Biden also took subtle shots at his predecessor, former President Donald Trump, who is currently the front-runner in the Republican presidential\u200d primary. &#8220;Can you believe we used to have the best\u200d infrastructure \u2062in the world, and \u2063then, we fell to No. 13 in the world?&#8221; Biden asked.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Guess what? The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-touts-union-support-on-labor-day\/\" title=\"Biden highlights union backing on Labor Day.\">great real estate builder<\/a>, the last guy, he \u200bdidn&#8217;t build a damn thing,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Under\u200d my predecessor, Infrastructure Week became a\u2062 punch line.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Biden also championed a stronger \u2064America to draw a contrast with Trump, who has often said the \u200cnation is failing under Democratic control. &#8220;All I\u200c hear from my friends on the other\u2064 side, what they say is wrong with America. They keep telling us America&#8217;s failing. They&#8217;re wrong,&#8221; the president said. &#8220;I&#8217;ve got news for you: America has the strongest economy in the world right now today. Lowest inflation rate among any major economy, 13.5 million new jobs, and there&#8217;s no one reason for it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Yet Biden ultimately sought not to focus \u2063most of\u2062 his speech on Trump but on his own\u200c policies and \u2062the strength of America&#8217;s future. &#8220;I&#8217;ve been \u200ddoing this a long while, but I&#8217;ve\u200c never been more optimistic about America&#8217;s future,&#8221; Biden later said. &#8220;We just have to remember who we are. We are the United States of \u200dAmerica. There&#8217;s nothing, nothing, nothing \u200cbeyond our capacity if we work \u2062together.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">CLICK HERE TO READ \u2063MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Joe Biden visited Philadelphia on Labor Day to highlight his pro-union stance and initiatives aimed at enhancing the middle class and economy.
