President Biden said on Thursday that America isn't experiencing "record inflation anymore" amid an annualized 8.2% spike in prices.
Biden made the comments during an interview with NewsNation on Thursday night.
"You've referred to the midterm election as a choice, rather than a referendum. Given record inflation, why should voters chose Democrats?," Biden was asked.
"Because it's not record inflation anymore. I'm bringing it down. Look what we inherited. I inherited 6.5% unemployment, it's down to 3.5%. We lost hundreds of thousands of manufacturing jobs. We've created over 700,000 manufacturing jobs. Things are moving," Biden said. "As that [GDP] report showed, you have people who are now in a position where the combination of pay raises and job security, they're now better off, even with inflation than they were before it."
