National Economic Council Director Brian Deese on Tuesday argued that the U.S. is in a position of strength to combat high inflation, following President Biden’s release of a three-part plan to lower rising prices.

“The economy we have right now is in a transition from this period of historic economic growth to a period that can be more stable, resilient growth. That requires focusing on inflation and doing so from a position of relative strength,” Deese told CNBC.

Yeah right 🙄🙄

[MtnClimber]

Correct....if inflation is the plan to destroy prosperity.

I need some of what Brian is smoking.

He’s right. Factories are rapidly gearing up production of WIN buttons.

Using that logic, ex husbands are in positions of strength
after the wife leaves for another guy.

They should feel better right away.

> following President Biden’s release of a three-part plan to lower rising prices <

I recently received an advanced copy of Biden’s plan. He devised the whole thing himself. It’s pure genius, I tell ya.

Step 1: Go to Step 2.
Step 2: Order more pudding for the President.
Step 3: Go back to Step 1.

The people that caused it have a plan to fix it...

…transition to a period [of] resilient growth

What? They don’t want “sustainable” growth? It’s very confusing when to use “resilient” vs. “sustainable.” Buzzwords are meaningless unless properly used.

We still have lots of high quality paper lying around so we can print more dollars and throw them at people so they can afford the higher prices.

[TomGuy]

So, when are you gonna start, Bri?

Bidenflation has been increasingly raging for 16 months.

Maybe, soon?

[KarlInOhio]

We are $30 freaking trillion in debt! We are not in a strong position to deal with anything.

Brian got his economics degree from a box of stale corn flakes.

This is their three point plan (I am not making this up):

1) Stop being mean to the Fed.
2) Make things more affordable for families. (Now there's an idea!)
3) Reduce the deficit (Read: raise taxes).

…transition to a period [of] resilient growth

This is the spin for the recession coming. On May 18th the Atlanta Fed said that the 2nd quarter GDP will be 2.4%...a couple weeks later it is predicting 1.8% growth in the 2nd Qtr...you can see where this is going.

Recession=Resilient Growth.

Be prepared for the code word Resilient Growth to be thrown around like a rag doll.

[maddog55]

the U.S. is in a position of strength to combat high inflation...

They are and it could easily be fixed by making the US oil independent again, opening up and signing off on land, sea leases. Open pipelines and drill baby drill.. Fuel prices go down, everything goes down.

But that would take common sense so being in a position of strength to combat high inflation is one thing but doing something about it is another.

[beethovenfan]

These morons created the inflation in the first place.

[FlipWilson]

There is no reality that will cause the left to abandon (even alter) its ideology.

Inflation?!! Why, let’s print more money!!
