Claim: “There’s nobody suggesting there’s unchecked inflation is on the way. No serious economist,” President Joe Biden said on Monday.

Larry Summers is worried about inflation. He has been the Treasury Secretary under Bill Clinton, director of the National Economic Council under Barack Obama, chief economist of the World Bank, and president of Harvard University. He is one of the most prominent economists in the United States today.

Summers has been warning that the Biden administration’s policies risked inflation and overheating several months ago, a topic he returned to on Twitter last week.

Economists are dumber than chimps—that is the only explanation.

Real economists predicted our current state in January while President Retard ate ice cream and spent generations of our descendant’s tax money.

Not sure what you are worried about. The 4th of July only saw a 16 cent increase.

In technical jargon, he talks out of his ass.

Not an exaggeration. I’ve dealt with people just like this, no idea what they’re talking about they just make up whatever they feel like saying.

If you contradict him with facts he’ll act like you’re a fool and say “well of course!”

Well, we know that’s untrue, Joe.

I’m not worried about inflation either, but I certainly expect it.

Coming from the guy (BIDEN) who confuses massive government printing of money (CAUSE) with rising consumer prices (EFFECT).

and the media will cover for him. If Trump had ever said this, all the networks and media would be publishing story after story after story from ‘serious economists’ who disagree.

And we are taking Biden’s word for it why?

Even the left leaning sites that come my way (Yahoo Finance) are saying inflation is bad.

Conservatives need to club the Democrats like baby seals with this next year in the Congressional elections.

But Paul Krugman thinks Biden is dreamy so that’s enough, nothing to see here.
