Video: Reporter Asked Joe Biden If Americans Should Be Worried About Inflation – His Reaction Spoke Volumes
Right Journalism ^ | 05.15.2021 | Natalie Dagenhardt

f the media could take a break from obsessing over the House Republicans choosing a new conference chair, they might have noticed that Joe Biden’s presidency is falling apart.

On every major front, Biden is flailing — even by the depressingly low bar set for him by the Washington press corps.

April just saw the highest rate of inflation in 13 years, according to the Department of Labor. Prices for everything, including food and gasoline, immediately skyrocketed after Biden’s $2 trillion welfare scheme (sometimes referred to as a “stimulus package”) went into effect and flooded the economy with more money than anyone knows what to do with.

Biden’s preoccupation? Spending even more.

The unemployment rate actually went up from March to April, even as Biden bragged that he’s the one responsible for mass vaccinations that are, at least in theory, supposed to be moving people back into the workforce. But no, his extension of the obscene amount of federal unemployment benefits has would-be workers choosing to sit pretty at home cashing government checks. Those benefits don’t end for another four months, assuming they aren’t extended again (you can never assume anything with Nancy Pelosi in charge). President Joe Biden has struggled in his early months at the top of the executive branch, writes Eddie Scarry.

Inflation climbed in April at its fastest pace in more than 12 years as the U.S. economic recovery accelerated, the Labor Department reported Wednesday.

The Consumer Price Index rise for April from a year earlier was the sharpest since September 2008.

Given the current situation, President Joe Biden blatantly ignored a reporter’s question Wednesday about whether or not Americans should be worried about rising prices.

His reaction spoke volumes!

How reassuring. One thing’s for sure, no one will ever call Joe Biden “The Great Communicator.”

He doesn't care and isn't allowed to answer questions anyway. They, the politicians, will forever be trying to line their own pockets, not particularly concerned with their constituents, especially the poor ones who don't contribute to their election funds.

Biden is lucky if he can guess what day of the week it is.

Give him seven guess. Problem is he’d peter out by the third guess, forget the question, get po’ed and mumble a little.

Shades of Jimmy Carter.

Libtard reporters are thrilled to get any response at all and probably peed themselves.

If the supposedly conservative media could please stop saying his presidency is falling apart and admit this is all part of the progressive plan we might find a way to defeat them.

Vegetablejoe wasn’t given a response in his earpiece, so he just kept walking away. He might not have even been aware of the question the reporter asked.

Maybe Dementiajoe was told to walk to away so his soggy Depends could be changed.

If there’s a lot of spending on infrastructure just think what that will do to private construction prices? The government will be bidding up raw materials. Home prices of new and existing projects will skyrocket.
