So Lame: Biden Blames Inflation on Vladimir Putin
10 Jun 2022
CLAY: And we got some news for you. Joe Biden, a.k.a. the worst president of any of our lives, addressed inflation, a.k.a. the highest level of inflation of many of our lives. Going all the way back to December of 1981, it has not been this bad in this country, 8.6%. Biden, he took responsibility and said he’s got a plan, right? Oh, no. Actually, he said this is all Vladimir Putin’s fault. Listen.

CLAY: All right. This clown continuing… First of all, that’s not true. I mean, so even in that limited 32-second clip that we played, I’m reading from Jacqui Heinrich, who’s on top of this.
Biden wrongly states that core inflation over the last 2 months has “moderated, has gone down”
Core CPI went from .3% in March to .6% in April, then stayed at .6% in May.

CLAY: So it’s up since March. It’s equal in May. He can’t even talk to you for 30 seconds without lying about his inflation fears.
BUCK: What’s he going to say, “I’m bad at this. I’m not very smart. I was bottom of my law school class”? I mean, really, you start to run into some impossible, impossible propaganda corners here. I don’t really know what Biden could say other than, “Everything that we have done since I took office has been a bad idea or wrong or counterproductive or a combination of all of the above,” and to try to get away with blaming it on Putin?
All you have to do is take a look at when inflation starts to tick up. It begins the moment that Biden takes office and just keeps going up and up long before anybody was even thinking about Russia invading Ukraine. But I got to say, I think that, you know, it’s going to get worse. We’re just seeing this really settle in now where they recognize that just in time for the election, that R word — “recession” — is going to be hitting in this country and voters are going to pay attention to that.
