Biden Downplays Disaster
This guy is insane.
President Biden sparked outrage after he attempted to downplay inflation which he has caused in the United States by saying it was “just an inch” higher in the short term.
According to Breitbart, Biden reminded by “60 Minutes” reporter Scott Pelley that inflation reached an unexpected 8.3% in August.
“Well, first of all, let’s put this in perspective. Inflation rate month to month was just– just an inch, hardly at all,” Biden shocking said.
“You’re not arguing that 8.3% is good news,” Pelley replied.
Biden responded, “No, I’m not saying it is good news. But it was 8.2% or — 8.2% before. I mean, it’s not — you’re ac — we act — make it sound like all of a sudden, ‘My god, it went to 8.2%.’”
