Desperate: Jen Psaki says that Republicans are ‘rooting for inflation’

Inflation is so bad and so present in everyday Americans’ lives that the White House can’t avoid talking about it. Just a couple of weeks ago, President Joe Biden said no one would trade this Thanksgiving for last year’s, even “as bad as things are.” A week later he was asking Americans if they ever thought they’d be paying this much for gas. Of course, the solution to reduce inflation is to pass Biden’s Build Back Better agenda, which the Congressional Budget Office is likely to determine does not cost zero dollars.Sen. Rick Scott said “this is a gold mine for us,” likely referring to the 2022 midterms and how voters are going to vote against the people who brought them this crappy economy. Press Secretary Jen Psaki took it to mean that Republicans are rooting for inflation.Q: Why, when Americans are seeing higher prices, are Republicans united against a bill to lower core costs on prescription drugs, health care, child care, and elder care?A: They’re rooting for inflation. https://t.co/Dl0JRB5WXv— Jen Psaki (@PressSec) November 16, 2021This is, of course, a lie. https://t.co/noCgncJVUb— jimtreacher.substack.com (@jtLOL) November 17, 2021You just stole $3 trillion from American taxpayers so Buttigieg can call bridges racist.I think we know who loves inflation. https://t.co/jUY6XLqtYd— John Cardillo (@johncardillo) November 17, 2021Pointing out to the American people that your disastrous policies caused inflation, which is damaging to your party, is not “rooting for inflation.” https://t.co/kX8NFdtzIg— Ryan Saavedra (@RealSaavedra) November 17, 2021Some impressive gaslighting right here https://t.co/De0Q4yASeu— Monica Crowley (@MonicaCrowley) November 17, 2021No wonder gas prices are up with all this lighting.— Noam Blum (@neontaster) November 17, 2021Wait, I thought the economy was roaring and jobs were being created and things were great.
