Joe Biden appeared in New Hampshire on Tuesday, costing taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars so he could give a short speech in which he repeated numerous falsehoods and generally insulted the intelligence of every American watching (which, to be fair, wasn’t many).
On the bright side, the president’s typical goofiness didn’t devolve into his usual bout of senility, so whatever cocktail they gave him must have worked. Still, I believe the content of his speech is actually more important than dunking on the fact that Biden isn’t all there.
As an example, the repeated statements of two very misleading statements were made to onlookers. They completely ignored the financial pain Americans are experiencing as their inflation rate continues to rise.
It is a fabrication.

Regardless of what one thinks about the Russian dictator Vladimir Putin, the inflationary boom that the United States currently experiences isn’t his fault. The inflation rate reached an alarming 8.5 percent in March 2022. It was a staggering 8.5 percent in March 2022. This happened long before Putin’s intervention on the world market. The average rate was 7.5 percent. The trend line shows that inflation has steadily increased since Joe Biden’s inauguration. To keep asserting that what the nation is currently suffering with is “Putin’s Price Hike” is a grotesque lie, made worse by the fact that the president keeps repeating it.
If only we had an industry of “fact-checkers” to correct such falsehoods, but I digress, the talking point on used cars is equally stupid. Yes, used cars have made up a good chunk of the country’s inflationary woes, but on what planet is it viable to discount that as if it doesn’t matter? Does Joe Biden think that working-class Americans don’t need used cars? It is disingenuous to start “not counting” certain aspects of the inflation rate in order to present a false narrative that things aren’t as bad as they are. Although the White House tried repeatedly to make that claim with gasoline prices, it is not true. This is all important.
Biden went into the crowd to kiss an elderly lady and exposed his hypocrisy about masks. Remember that this happened just one day after Jen Psaki (speaking for the President) lambasted the judicial decision ending the federal mask mandate on trains and planes.

If you want to keep score, the mask your 2-year-old must wear while riding on a HEPA filter which produces virtually zero spread of COVID-19. Yet, a nearly 80-year-old geriatric like Biden can walk into a crowd of equally vulnerable people and start smooching old ladies, and it’s just fine. But to make matters even more ridiculous, just hours earlier, Biden was wearing a mask…outside.
Does the president or his staff really see the contradiction in their messages? Are they not seeing how absurd it seems when they attempt to deceive people about inflation and mask-wearing Apparently, they don’t because there’s no shift on the horizon even as Biden’s approval numbers compete with a colonoscopy.
Fundamentally, the White House acts as though America is a sovereign monarchy. They can make whatever they like and force the will of the common man. How do you imagine the average American thinks about Biden grabbing old women and demanding that you use a mask for the gym? What do you think the average person thinks when the administration tells them that paying 20 percent more for groceries isn’t so bad because of used cars and Vladimir Putin? I’ll tell you what they think: They think their intelligence is being insulted. That will end up being the undoing for the Democrat Party at least in the next ten years. It is so deep.
