The Biden administration’s way of resolving Bidenflation

Early this week, Joe Biden claimed the U.S. had "zero inflation" in July.

The claim was a direct contraction of federal Consumer Price Index data that showed annual inflation dropped only marginally to 8.5 percent.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was on ABC News’s “This Week” to talk about a range of issues of concern to the voters, including inflation.

Host Jonathan Karl began his questions on the economy by citing an ABC News/Ipsos poll from early August where only 37% of Americans approve of Joe Biden’s handling of the economy and 70% thought the economy under Biden had worsened.

Karl asked Jean-Pierre why so many Americans disapprove of Biden, despite inflation apparently coming down of late.

Jean-Pierre responded that lowering costs is the number "one priority" of the Biden administration.

She claimed that gas prices are down by over $1 which caused Americans to save around 100 bucks per month and credited Biden for this.

She claimed that the introduction of the Inflation Reduction Act would help curb inflation.

Hahaha.

It’s still $1.17 more per gallon than I paid under President Trump at the end of his term.
