TL;DR

President Biden's economic policy, known as Bidenomics, may pose a significant risk to his re-election campaign as the consequences of excessive public spending could come back to haunt him. While Bidenomics has led to a strong labor market and a recovery from the Covid recession, it has also resulted in high inflation, soaring public debt, and concerns about the dollar's future as the world's reserve currency. The massive budget stimulus, combined with loose monetary policy, has led to economic overheating and a surge in inflation. The Federal Reserve's recent tightening measures could potentially trigger an economic recession during the election campaign, putting Biden's economic performance under scrutiny. However, Biden may need to shift the public's attention to non-economic issues to mitigate the impact of his economic challenges.
