Clueless Or A Liar? WH Press Sec. Touts ‘Bidenomics’ While Working Poor Suffer<\/span><\/p>\n

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Monday told Fox News’s Peter Doocy that prices of all sorts of basic items for American consumers “are going down” under President Biden.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“This holiday season, families are seeing lower prices on everyday items from gas to groceries,” Jean-Pierre said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Karine Jean-Pierre claims “families are seeing lower prices on everyday items from gas to groceries.”<\/p>\n

That is a lie. Since Biden took office, prices are up by 17.6% and the nationwide average for gas remains $0.86\/gallon higher. pic.twitter.com\/qxGkRBA4Ct<\/a><\/p>\n

Jean-Pierre is correct about prices for some items moderating. However, she purposefully leaves out prices have significantly risen over the last several years.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bloomberg data shows typical household items are up double digits from January 2020 to October 2023.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It now requires $119.27 to buy the same goods and services a family could afford with $100 before the pandemic. Since early 2020, prices have risen about as much as they had in the full 10 years preceding the health emergency.<\/em><\/p>\n

It’s hard to find an area of a household budget that’s been spared: Groceries are up 25% since January 2020. Same with electricity. Used-car prices have climbed 35%, auto insurance 33% and rents roughly 20%.<\/em><\/p>\n

While Jean-Pierre continues to tout ‘Bidenomics,’ Washington Post’s Leigh Ann-Caldwell explained on Sunday it [Bidenomics] had become a negative word” within the Democratic Party.<\/p>\n

“‘Bidenomics” has really become a negative word, especially among Democrats because it’s not working,” Ann-Caldwell told NBC’s Meet The Press.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, President Biden’s top aides were briefed by the think tank Progressive Change Campaign Committee\u00a0about Bidenomics’ branding failure<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Notice the White House and their corporate media allies launched a headline blitz promoting “Bidenomics” in late June.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Yet Biden’s polling data still went south!\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Perhaps the Biden administration fails to admit that two years of negative real wage growth crushed many low\/mid-tier households.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Or better, this meme explains it all.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Back to the clown show at the White House press briefing earlier today, CBS reporter Ed O’Keefe asked: “Given the president’s sagging poll numbers, and the fact that he is currently placing behind any Republican opponent, has there been any talk in this White House about a change in strategy or staffing going forward?”<\/p>\n
