Biden Tricks Thousands Of Union Workers
This is pathetic.
On Tuesday, during his first speech since announcing his reelection bid, President Biden addressed a group of union workers, attacking Republicans while promoting his own agenda.
In transcript provided by The Hill, “They’d rather see kids and seniors struggle with what they need, people on Medicare lose their health care, veterans lose access to doctors visits… than cut subsidies to Big Oil that made $200 billion and Big Pharma and the wealthiest corporations” Biden said gaslighting the union workers by bashing Republicans.
“Same old trickle down dressed up in MAGA clothing. Only worse because this time they’re saying if they don’t get their way, if Biden doesn’t agree with them and agree with all the cuts… they’re going to let the country default on its debt,” Biden added.
On Tuesday, the White House stated that if the House Republican measure proposing a cap on government funding at fiscal 2022 levels and limiting spending growth to 1 percent annually over the next decade, along with other proposals to reduce spending, were to reach President Biden’s desk, he would veto it.
In his speech, President Biden highlighted the achievements of the Democrats during his first two years in office, specifically mentioning the Inflation Reduction Act and the infrastructure law.
“Our economic plan is working, we now have to finish the job and there’s more to do,” Biden lied.
President Biden emphasized that the Inflation Reduction Act, a comprehensive climate and tax legislation introduced by the Democrats, is effectively combating the pharmaceutical industry by reducing the cost of insulin. He pointed out that the bill had received no support from Republicans and that House Republicans were attempting to repeal certain provisions, such as the clean energy job sector.
President Biden disclosed that Senate Republicans had privately informed him that they would have supported the bill, but feared facing primary challenges if they did so. He remarked that this was not an act of courage, but rather an admission of political vulnerability.
