Screws Loose, Toluse? WashPost WH Bureau Chief Worried Biden’s Polices Won’t Get ‘Credit’
NewsBusters ^ | 1/14/2025 | Joseph Vazquez

Washington Post White House Bureau Chief Toluse Olorunnipa had a bout of the heebie-jeebies over history potentially not giving President Joe Biden the, er, “credit” his economic policies deserve.

Oh, Biden’s getting credit alright, just not in the way Olorunnipa intended.

“Biden’s agenda had a big impact. Will history give him credit,” read Olorunnipa’s Sunday propaganda piece disguised as a news item that also made its way into the Monday print edition of The Post. Olorunnipa mourned that Biden’s irresponsible infusion of trillions of dollars into the economy that set inflation on a collision course with people’s wallets wasn’t enough to give Democrats the boost they needed in the 2024 elections. “As construction cranes rise above Liberty and dozens of other Trump-friendly towns, the White House is grappling with the reality that the trillions injected into the economy by Biden’s policies did little to boost his party.”

All the supposed benefits, legacies, and perks of Bidenomics, lamented Olorunnipa, were now “in the hands of those who will only see benefits years or decades after he leaves office.” In other words, of course Biden’s policies were great, just wait about 10 years or so and you’ll see how God-Bless-America fantabulous they actually were!

Olorunnipa relayed the White House spin: “In recent weeks, Biden and his aides have cast his presidency as a calculated case of economic delayed gratification.” Biden allies were allowed to double down on the ludicrous notion that Bidenomics was somehow a stroke of genius: “Still, the outcome is tinged with bitterness for Biden’s allies, who say the benefits of his economic agenda are beyond dispute.” So it’s “beyond dispute” that we will see the delayed benefits in the future? Oh really?

He wrote a book about George Floyd and social justice. He should be objective and look at the negative effects of Biden’s economy on blacks, and everyone else.

Any idiot can spend trillions of dollars on bullshit and look like they know what they are doing. It’s why the budget never gets cut.
