The Biden administration’s way of resolving Bidenflation
By Rajan Laad
Early this week, Joe Biden claimed the U.S. had "zero inflation" in July.
The claim was a direct contraction of federal Consumer Price Index data that showed annual inflation dropped only marginally to 8.5 percent.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was on ABC News’s “This Week” to talk about a range of issues of concern to the voters, including inflation.
Host Jonathan Karl began his questions on the economy by citing an ABC News/Ipsos poll from early August where only 37% of Americans approve of Joe Biden’s handling of the economy and 70% thought the economy under Biden had worsened.
Karl asked Jean-Pierre why so many Americans disapprove of Biden, despite inflation apparently coming down of late.
Jean-Pierre responded that lowering costs is the number "one priority" of the Biden administration.
She claimed that gas prices are down by over $1 which caused Americans to save around 100 bucks per month and credited Biden for this.
