Although Democrats tend to be lacking self-awareness and are known for being prone to depression, they do have one thing that is incredibly important. These areAt this point in the 2022 midterm elections campaign season, it is clear that America’s economy is top priority. If large majorities continue to feel the effects of inflation, Democrats won’t fare very well.
This is why you’re seeing so many of them from Joe Biden on down insult the intelligence of the American people by trying to redefine words like “recession” and “inflation,” and by gaslighting the hell out of folks by lying about what the bogusly-named “Inflation Reduction Act” will do.
All of this brings me to what Georgia Democratic gubernatorial nominee Stacey Abrams proclaimed on the Twitter machine this week about the state of the economy – or, as she framed, it, the state of Georgia’s economy.
Contrary to the Biden administration’s whopper about how we had “zero” inflation in July, Abrams didAccept the reality that inflation is a serious problem. Except in the tweet she wrote about it, she put the blame for inflation and the rising costs of goods and services on … Gov. Brian Kemp
In Brian Kemp’s Georgia, rent is sky high, inflation has destabilized our economy, and the price of groceries is increasingly out of reach. He can point the finger as much as he likes, but either this is the economy he created or it’s not.

Umm… I’m no economics expert, and I certainly haven’t won a Nobel Prize for it like Paul Krugman has, but I’m pretty sure that’s not how any of this works. I mean had she put “Joe Biden’s America” where she put “Brian Kemp’s Georgia” she would have been 100% correct because last I checked, Gov. Kemp – no state governor, in fact – is in the business of printing his own money, nor does he have control over federal monetary policies.
Further, Kemp has nothing to do with rent in Georgia being too high, that’s another thing we can thank Democrats for thanks in no smart part to inflation and policies put in place by Democrats during the coronavirus pandemic that forced landlords to foot the bill for months for renters who either couldn’t afford to stay there or who didn’t want to pay the rent.
Was ist das? It has also hurt the state’s economy, I should point out, are Georgia Democrats like Stacey Abrams and Sen. Raphael Warnock, both of who sabotaged their state for political gain in 2021 over the Georgia election reform bill, deliberate actions which ended up costing the state the MLB All-Star game and all millions in revenue that would have come with it.
Either Stacey Abrams thinks Georgia voters are too stupid to realize she’s trying to pull a con here …
A vote for Stacey is a vote for someone who thinks you’re an idiot. https://t.co/WLabyUz4FE

… or she legitimately does not get that the inflation and sky-high price issues Americans continue to face have nothing to do with her opponent:
One Democrat finds that inflation in America is on the rise.
Naturally, she doesn’t understand why.#Bidenflation https://t.co/JMl2MV4e6O

I believe that either one can be disqualifying.
