White House Tricks Americans Again
People are sick of this.
In another attempt to play damage control for Joe Biden’s presidency, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claimed that Biden will be able to lower inflation by using the American Rescue Plan.
The Biden Administration now believes that they can “take on” rising prices a claim they have made multiple times now.
According to Fox, Jean-Pierre stated, We’ve got to remember when thinking about gas prices and food this is coming from Putin’s war against Ukraine. The moment that Putin amassed forces on the border of Ukraine, we saw from then until now, we have seen a $2 increase per gallon on gas.”
CNN’s Don Lemon then interrupted and replied, “Economists do cite the war in Ukraine and supply chain issues. We did have that before the war, supply chain issues. They also say that last year’s stimulus package, which you mentioned, contributed to inflation, Karine. Does the Biden administration bear some responsibility for this?“
She responded, “So, first of all, the American Rescue Plan met the moment, and it has put us in a place where we can actually put us in a place where the American people feel – can actually, we can take on inflation. What I mean by that is we’ve seen growth, right, with as I mentioned more than 8 million jobs. Now we’re transitioning into a steady, stable growth.”
