According to Democrats, inflation began as a blip, then became “hotter than projected, but it would decline next year.” It was sometimes Vladimir Putin’s fault, and other times inflation was beneficial. Inflation would soon be eliminated by merely spending an additional $740 billion. Most recently, if you care about inflation, you’re a Nazi. Now Biden expects us to think that if Republicans are elected, inflation will worsen.
How can anyone take Biden’s frantic shift in rhetoric seriously when he has either ignored the subject or blamed everything but his own actions for America’s economic woes? Polling in American politics can be volatile, but it’s safe to conclude that the mood of the country doesn’t at all. Over the past year, voters’ primary worries have been inflation and the economy.
With fewer than two weeks until Election Day, Biden and Democrats’ final argument seems to be that Republicans want to destroy the economy. Given that Republicans have recovered momentum and are growing their advantage in critical states and on the general election ballot, it’s no wonder that Democrats are repeating the tired Obama-era talking theme that Republicans are seeking to damage the economy for political advantage. As if that hasn’t been the case with Democrats for the last two years. To satisfy radical environmentalists, Biden has stifled American energy independence, his expenditure packages have equated to handouts to key left-wing groups, and the governmental regulatory system aims to diminish market competition to assist left-wing labor unions. What does an American taxpayer get in exchange? There will be 87,000 extra IRS agents, a student loan handout to the privileged and well-connected, and a $31 trillion national debt.
American economic outlook has only deteriorated during Biden’s presidency. Inflation remains high and stable. Gas prices continue to be stubbornly high. Mortgage and rent prices are rising. Markets have taken a blow in recent weeks, and most analysts now predict an approaching recession, yet Biden has the audacity to claim that the Republicans are the ones to really be concerned about?
What has been the unifying factor over the last two years? Washington, DC is ruled by a single Democratic party. When it comes to inflation, Democrats have no answer since they are well aware that their economic strategy simply does not work.
