Democrats Pivot on Inflation After Months of ‘Transitory’ Claim

Wendell Husebø 16 Feb 2022

Democrats on Tuesday pivoted towards addressing 40-year-high inflation after months of claiming rising costs were just “transitory.”

“Obviously, our analysis is going to be done by our economic experts. They continue to convey that they believe the impact will be temporary, transitory,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said.

In December, Biden’s financial experts admitted inflation was no longer transitory, but it took congressional Democrats until the middle of February to pivot in the direction of vocally issuing concerns about rising costs.

“You’re going to see a lot of activity in March from us on that issue,” Sen. Chuck Schumer’s (D-NY) finally said Tuesday.

“We’re going to focus like a laser on reducing costs — the new proposals and new ideas keep coming,” he continued. “We’re going to propose legislation and we’re going to move forward, and we’re going to go back to our states and start talking about these things.”

Biden on Tuesday also acknowledged Bidenflation is hurting Americans’ pocketbooks. “There is real inflation, and if you’re in a working-class family, it hurts. That’s why my Build Back Better plan — what’s it all about,” Biden said. “Look, families are getting clobbered by the cost of everyday things.”

On Wednesday, Sen. John Thune (R-SD), an establishment Republican who often agrees with Democrats, pointed out that Schumer and Biden have finally realized Democrats were wrong on inflation due to polling data. Thune said:

The Democrats made a very noticeable pivot yesterday, I don’t know if you noticed this, but starting with Senator Schumer’s floor marks, but throughout the day, all of a sudden they’re starting to talk about inflation. So evidently, they have looked at some polling data and realized the impact that this is having on the American people and what the American people think about their leadership as a result of that.

How many Democrat/Communist/NeverTrump voters are broke? They got what they wanted. Get rid of TRUMP at any cost. And now they are eating (or not eating) the cost of that idiotic decision. Hey NeverTrumper, how is that gallon of gas working out for you? HAHAHAHA

Fools and idiots. All of them.

Is PIVOT the DCP made up a new definition for meaning flip flop? Their leftist agenda is falling apart as usual. They never know why it's happening.

Expect a lot more “pivoting” before November

Dems pivot more frequently than an NBA pointguard.

So, their plan is to lie to us, and hope we are dumb enough to believe them.
