President Biden took to Twitter Monday to tout his economic policies and the impact “Bidenomics” was having on workers’ wages over the last two years. His self-praise was short-lived, however, as Twitter fact-checkers said it “contains a factual error.”
“Right now, real wages for the average American worker is higher than it was before the pandemic, with lower wage workers seeing the largest gains,” the president wrote on Twitter. “That’s Bidenomics.”
Twitter’s Community Notes added context for readers that said: “The tweet’s claim about real wages contains a factual error.”
