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!”

In other words, he's a career US Senator. Senators say BS all day, every day and everyone just rolls their eyes and moves on. He still thinks he's a Senator (He's said so!) and so he keeps just saying BS like nobody will notice or remember it tomorrow.

The Biden Crime Family is part of The Democrat Party Crime Syndicate.

I believe that I heard Carter say words to that effect…in 1978.

People who have to work for a living are concerned about inflation.

What does P. J. O’Rourke, the unserious economics writer of Eat the Rich: A Treatise on Economics, have to say about inflation? That’s all I want to know. Biden still thinks we are fighting the Civil War from 156 years ago. Economic theory has changed since then.

I'm predicting Inflation will be worse than Carter's in a few months.

Economists will say whatever their company requires them to say, using those unintelligible "economist" words. What puppet man said is a signal to journalists and economists, that they are henceforth expected required to say there is no inflation.

“People who have to work for a living are concerned about inflation.”

Retired people are often more concerned.

But concern about inflation is meaningless, and does nothing. Taking advantage of inflation is what one must always do when inflation comes.

“I’m predicting Inflation will be worse than Carter’s in a few months.”

People’s pretend inflation can be as high as they pretend it is. “OMG, milk is so high!”

What about in 2 years? 5 years?

No serious anybody believes a word that comes out of Joe Biden’s mouth. Notice I did not say the President’s mouth.

Actually it is true from what I have heard. No serious Economist is “worried” about inflation. Many are terrified of it. Some are screaming for spending policy reversal, and many say the only reason we have not experienced hyperinflation, is because Joe’s idiotic legislation agenda has been stalled, due to political opposition, and its suicidal fiscal irresponsibility. Yes, they are YES men. Hardly serious.

Less than a year for the big Inflation hit which has already started. The time between when the money is printed up and when the Market reflects it can be as long as 2 years . Any inflation predictions beyond that depend on the whim of the Fed.

Right, Joe. And no serious economist was worried about inflation in Zimbabwe, either. Until they were.

Just wait! You have seen what democrats have done to a roaring economy in the past. History will repeat itself. I hate to admit it, but it will repeat itself despite all of the positive talk. I will take a hit in my investments because of it, but there is nothing I can do about it.

It was actually a $.16 DECREASE, so I went out and bought a Ferrari based on the good news.
