Fact Check: Biden Blames Inflation on Trump
Breitbart ^ | 04/11/2024 | JOHN CARNEY

Claim: President Joe Biden claimed on Wednesday that inflation was “skyrocketing” when he took office.

“Look we have dramatically reduced inflation from 9% down to close to 3% we’re in a situation where we’re better situated and we were we took office, where we inflation was skyrocketing,” Biden said Wednesday at a White House press conference.

The president was reacting to the latest report on the consumer price index, which showed inflation rose at an annualized rate of 4.6 percent in March, the fourth consecutive month in which inflation has exceeded expectations.

Premium gas 2020: $3.05

Premium gas 2024: $4.35 and climbing.

Even the math challenged can see the difference.

“Facts are irrelevant. Biden’s handlers have him say something, the media treats it as immutable fact, and the masses follow along”

This is the basis of all government propaganda - and has always been. Propaganda has at its root the most ancient of all knowledge: straight from the Garden. Human Beings will believe a lie if that lie is promulgated from a place of authority. Government is the Serpent. And the more powerful the communication technology becomes, the easier it is to get human beings to believe even the most outrageous lies.

The average household earned just over $87,800. The fed says inflation rose just 16.9% in 2021, 2022, and 2023. For that fake inflation rate and the average income that is a loss of $14,838. Or at your cost that is a loss of 742 chubs of ground beef per year.

Or at $4 per gallon of gas that is a loss of 3,710 gallons of gas. Or at a $2,000 house payment a loss of 7 months of house payments.

The average car payment for a new car is $738. So that inflation is a loss of 20 car payments a year.

If you earn less it takes up more of what was once free income to spend on what you want. Like birthday presents or Christmas presents for your kids. Maybe you help your retired parents with their bills. Now you have less to help them with.

They don’t care because they’re idiots. This country is full of aggressively stupid people afflicted with TDS.

Here in Kalifornia, insurance companies are pulling out of the State which is driving home insurance rates sky high. Just another out of control cost confronting the people trying to eke out a living.

This is the same inflation they have been denying existed for years now, right?

One of his first acts in office was the signing of his energy policy which saw prices double and the inflation commence.

It started when he signed the executive order on January 27th, 2021 basically declaring war on domestic fuel production and distribution.

The way they’re brainwashed they’d rather destroy their own lives and country before they would ever vote for any republican. They don’t realize that Trump is a new brand of republican who’s here to end the politics as usual.
