'If you don't like hot dogs you may not care': Jen Psaki's flippant answer when grilled on tone-deaf White House tweet about 16-cent saving on BBQs amid highest inflation for 13 years

White House press secretary Jen Psaki tried to defend a White House tweet on Friday that boasted how President Biden's economic policies would be saving Americans $0.16 cents on traditional items for a Fourth of July barbecue.

'Planning a cookout this year? Ketchup on the news,' the White House tweeted. 'According to the Farm Bureau, the cost of a 4th of July BBQ is down from last year. It's a fact you must-hear(d) – Hot dog, the Biden economic plan is working. And that's something we can all relish.'

The tweet was accompanied by a GIF laying out the price change for select food items. The savings for the entire meal came to just 16 cents.

Save $.16 on a hot dog, costs $20 more in gas to drive to the store to get the hot dog.

Mighty funny numbers. Maybe if you bought Nathan’s Famous last year and Sugardale’s pink slime dogs this year? Economists calculating Cost of Living numbers do that, you know. They excuse it by calling it “substitution”. As a term of art. Right.........

They lie.
We know they lie.
They know we know they lie.
We know they know we know they lie.
But they still lie.

Beat me too it. It literally cost me $16.00 more per tank of gas fror my truck. I guess I should rejoice that 4 th of July cook out is $0.16 less this year?

'If you don't like hot dogs you may not care': Jen Psaki'

Well Jen knows that Dems do not eat hot dogs, they like Weiners exposed on line, either rare or well done, as proven by the New York Weiner Huma Abedin scandal.

But the translation of Psaki's comment is clear:

" Let them eat cake!" (Marie Antoinette)

This shows how out of touch Jen Psaki is with the inflationary plight of ordinary Americans. Need we remind Psaki that poor Marie faced the guillotine shortly after making her historical comment about the peasants of Paree?

Wow. That’s terribly pathetic. And they’re not embarrassed to put this out there? Seriously out-of-touch.

Meanwhile, gasoline is up in my area around 75 cents per gallon. Thanks for canceling Keystone XL Joe; oops I mean Obama.

It’s like they don’t have a milligram of gravitas. Just a bunch of irresponsible morons playing white house. The more they try to hide it the more apparent it becomes.

Liberals that voted for these jackasses really need their heads examined.

Those prices were incorrect. All of the prices in the grocery stores here - Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Trader Joes, Lowe’s and Whole Foods- have skyrocketed.

She is a damn liar.

The WH is hosting a party for 1,000 people on Independence Day while refusing to allow Gov. Noem to host a celebration at Mount Rushmore on the 4th.
