Ahead of predicted bad inflation numbers tomorrow, Joe Biden gave a speech on how awesome the economy is doing. Instead of reassuring people that things are going well he reinforced their fears that his brain is on its last cell. When told that a Republican said Biden should resign, Joe smiled and said it was a good idea.
Biden started out by blaming inflation on a lack of semiconductors and Russian president Vladimir Putin. He put additional blame on Republicans for not having a good plan to undo all of the damage Biden has caused.
“Republicans will offer plenty of blame but not a single solution to actually bring down energy prices,” said Biden.
In case anyone would point out that the democrats are in control of the White House and Congress, Biden did note that in a weird Bidenesque way:
“Firstly, we’re in power. That’s the first thing and you justifiably right, we control the three branches of government,” Biden said.
Democrats control the Supreme Court? I wonder if they’ll take credit when Roe v. Wade gets overturned.
Then there was this quote that should definitely be on a bumper sticker or coffee mug:
“The number one threat is the strength and that strength that we built is inflation,” said Biden.
Huh? That sounds like a word salad he stole from Kamala Harris.
But this was the real star of the show:
“Senator Rick Scott of Wisconsin, a member of the Senate Republican leadership, laid it all out in a plan. It’s the Ultra-MYGA-MAGA plan,” Biden said.
Rick Scott is from Florida, not Wisconsin and WTF is his Ultra-MYGA-MAGA agenda? There’s no time to figure that out because Biden was then asked a Rick Scott-related question and Joe’s answer is why he needs to go:
“You called out Rick Scott a little while ago, earlier today, anticipating your remarks he said, ‘The best thing, the most effective thing, Joe Biden can do to solve the inflation crisis he created is resign. He’s the problem,'” asked a reporter.
“Resign? That’s a good idea,” said Biden with a dopey smile.
“The Senator added later, ‘Joe Biden is unwell, he’s unfit for office, he’s incoherent, incapacitated, he’s confused.’ Those were his words. I’ll give you a chance to respond,” said the reporter.
“That man has a problem,” responded Biden.
Rick Scott has a problem? Biden literally just said the Florida Senator was from Wisconsin and agreed with him that he should resign. And he claimed that democrats control the Supreme Court. All Biden did here was prove Scott correct that he’s incoherent, confused, incompetent and unfit for office.
During this entire speech Biden tried portray Republicans as extremists who are the real cause of inflation. He kept using a Rick Scott proposal as proof that Republicans are the ones to blame, insisting “it’s in writing.” What Biden is talking about was a framework that Scott put out. It is not a draft piece of legislation nor is it anything close to what Biden claims it is.
Biden is hoping that he can convince people all of their problems are because of Ultra-MYGA-MAGAs and not his gross incompetence. Today’s speech will do nothing to help his cause.
