It might work, if American memories can’t last three years.
President Joe Biden is trying his hand as Professor Joe Biden, with a whiteboard video from the White House aimed at trying to convince voters “Bidenomics” is making them better off, despite the evidence of their bank accounts.
But like every other aspect of the Biden presidency, it’s backfiring — badly.
In a three-minute video released to social media on Friday, the president used magic markers, a whiteboard and some cute technology tricks to explain that the disastrous economic policies of the Biden administration have done more than create the ruinous inflation that’s brutalizing American pocketbooks. It didn’t work.
For anyone with three minutes to burn listening to sugar-coated lies about the state of the nation, the video is here:
I came to office determined to change the economic direction of this country and to move from trickle-down economics to my middle out, bottom up vision:

But what his team apparently didn’t reckon on was that reality has a way of intruding on even the most grandiose leftist fantasies — and that standing in front of a blank whiteboard in the age of easily edited social media images is a recipe for self-destruction.
After all, social media, like nature itself, abhors a vacuum.
