Joe Biden has shown – time and time again – that he has no compunction against lying if it means shifting the blame away from himself. Some of his lies about inflation have been mentioned before.
We’ve seen him blame everyone and everything else, rather than take the blame and take the right steps to address it. His most recent excuse was Vladimir Putin. This despite inflation being raging for many months long before Putin invaded Ukraine at February’s end. He was speaking at the House Democrats Conference in Philadelphia, and he repeated the lie, saying inflation was “largely the fault of Putin.”
Biden declares that “make no mistake, inflation is largely Putin’s fault.”

Do you think he believes that Americans were asleep during all the months of inflation raging? They can put one over him? Americans are hit hard in the wallet. It has become more difficult for Americans to just afford basic necessities.
Joe Biden was not able to control his anger at the insults he made of Americans while talking with House Democrats. He tells the truth.
Biden bristles about the economy then adds:

“The American people just trying to stay above water don’t understand this,” he said, about what the Democrats did with the American Rescue Plan. “You tell them what the American Recovery Act [referencing something passed under Barack Obama in 2009] is and they look at you like, ‘What are you talking about?’”
This is what he thinks about us — that we’re not capable of understanding even those basic things. Somehow, we just don’t understand how wonderful he’s made everything for us, as we’re being crushed under the Bidenflation boot. If you think you’re struggling, you’re just imagining it. The problem for him of course is that we do understand, and that’s what he can’t stand.
As far as “understanding,” Biden doesn’t even seem to be able to understand how to even get a sentence out without getting lost in the middle of it, while having no idea what he is saying.

Biden claimed that the American Rescue Plan, the $1.9 trillion law signed last year, didn’t cause inflation.

Economists disagree and point out that this spending is a major factor in the rise of inflation. Even Steven Rattner, a former Treasury Department official under the Obama administration, has said that this isn’t on Putin, it’s on Biden, and he needs to own it.
Well, no. These numbers are the Feb #’s. They only account for a very small Russia effect. Biden must own this inflation. https://t.co/WsJjn6picV

He also had previously noted that it can be traced back to the “original sin” of the American Rescue Plan and the massive spending by Biden, writing in a November 2021, New York Times op-ed.
“The original sin was the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan, passed in March. The bill – almost completely unfunded – sought to counter the effects of the COVID pandemic by focusing on demand-side stimulus rather than on investment. That has contributed materially to today’s inflation levels.”
Biden pushes for more spending and refuses to admit it because he is aware that this would hurt his future spending plans. That’s why he’ll blame everything else but the real cause. So, either he’s evil and wants to impose more suffering. Or he’s the one who “doesn’t understand” here, and he’s going to find out how well Americans understand in November.
