Clueless WashPost Claims GOP Should ‘Rethink Attacks on Biden Economy’
NewsBusters ^ | 7/26/2023 | Joseph Vazquez

Posted on 07/26/2023 9:01:16 AM PDT by JV3MRC

The Washington Post is either too blinded by ineptitude to realize how bad President Joe Biden’s economy really is or is just content making pathetic attempts to deceive readers.

The Post economics reporter Jeff Stein wrote a ludicrous July 26 news item headlined, “As inflation falls, GOP may have to rethink attacks on Biden economy.” Stein suggested that the “message” of Biden’s poor economic stewardship undergirded by 40-year high inflation “may no longer be as powerful.” Stein zeroed in on how inflation rates have eased from nine percent last year to three percent in June. But what Stein glosses over is the reality that prices are still rising, not falling as his misleading headline suggests. The only change is that prices are not rising as aggressively as they were before. In fact, as The Heritage Foundation Research Fellow EJ Antoni pointed out July 24, “Inflation remains more than twice what it was when Mr. Biden became president, and prices have already risen 16% during his term.”

I imagine a lot of their “Post turtles” will start “rethinking” right away.

I guess criticism is misinformation.

“The Washington Post is either too blinded by ineptitude to realize how bad President Joe Biden’s economy really is or is just content making pathetic attempts to deceive readers.”

There is another option that is far more accurate: The Post lacks any integrity in reporting because it is nothing more than a partisan Democrat propaganda machine.

Okay, I’ll rethink attacking the Bi-Dung Economy.

I say the GOP should ATTACK HARDER!!!!! “Nobody ever defended anything successfully, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.”

Damn it GOP, DO SOMETHING right for once. Find Your Balls!!!

Even if inflation falls to zero, the incredible price increases over the past two years are still baked in, with no sign of coming back down.

Got to admire the compost for their undying devotion to the democRAT party—I’m sure they would have defended slavery had their bird cage liner been around in 1860-1865.

Food cost up over 20%

Fuel cost up over 40%

Mortgage interest up over 100%

Energy independence GONE.

Annual Interest on the National Debt over $1 Trillion/year.

Exactly. My grocery bill has yet to go down, but in reality, has actually increased, despite inflation being less, supposedly.

The job of the Washington Post (and most of the press) is to protect the power of corrupt white liberal ‘elites’.

DC is an incestuous town... and press ‘elites’ and white liberal ‘elites’ are joined at the hip. The Post is defending their friends and their class... against the powerless people of the United State.

(The only ‘powerless people’ the Washington Post defends are the grievance and criminals groups that hold up the power of white liberal elites’ in DC.)

I have not noticed prices falling. The is a difference between the rate of inflation and the cost of things. We say that gasoline is expensive and the Biden gang empties the SPR.

“Inflation falls”... is a leftist for a lie.

Sure, it’s fell from 11% a year to 9%.

Nice try WAPO but your Jedi mind tricks only work on weak minds like Democrats.
