Democrats Blame Inflation On Who?
They cannot be serious.
In a shocking turn of events, Democrats are trying to flip the script on America and are now claiming that inflation is soaring because it was former President Donald Trump and his administration’s fault.
During a recent interview with ABC, Former Democratic Senator Heidi Heitkamp accused Trump of being the driving force behind inflation.
In transcript provided by Breitbart, Heitkamp stated, “You always blame the party in power. And, you know, the administration wasn’t aggressive enough, in my opinion, in pushing back on the red herrings. The red herrings like it’s because you didn’t build the Keystone XL pipeline and remind them one of the first things Donald Trump did was give the permit, and in four years, the pipeline didn’t get built? Why not? It wasn’t economical to build that pipeline in those price points. They argue that this is because of inflation. Runaway inflation. Who drove up inflation? We saw the CBO numbers this week. It was the Trump Administration that overspent and drove up inflation. So if inflation in prices and housing and in gas is because of deficit spending, that’s Trump’s fault, and so the administration has not been nearly aggressive enough to explain what’s actually going on.”
ABC’s Jon Karl then asked, “Although if you look at the numbers, inflation really started to rise almost exactly when Biden came in the White House.”
Heitkamp foolishly responded, “Now that argues my point, doesn’t it?”
