Nancy Pelosi forced Joe Biden out of the Presidential race.
There are still hard feelings on Biden’s part.
And Joe Biden’s fight with Nancy Pelosi led to this ugly public meltdown.
Joe Biden snaps at reporter over inflation
The media wanted Democrats to take a victory lap over the latest inflation number.
Despite the fact that prices surged 21 percent since Joe Biden took office, the press tried to make a big deal over the fact that the latest inflation report showed a year-over-year increase of 2.9 percent.
One reporter actually asked Biden if he single-handedly defeated inflation.
“Inflation numbers! Has the U.S. beat inflation, Mr. President?” the reporter shouted.
Biden took the question personally.
Nancy Pelosi engineered a pressure campaign that forced him out of the Presidential race because Pelosi thought he was too senile to win.
Biden is now in legacy mode and wants to erase from the history books that his own party ended his career in a humiliating fashion.
That led to an unhinged Biden shouting at the reporter that they needed to start writing puff pieces about how Biden led the nation to economic victory over inflation.
“Yes, yes, yes! I told you we’re going to have a soft landing . . . my policies are working. Start writing that way, okay?” Biden ranted.
Dark Brandon is absolutely right the media isn't playing it straight on economic issues.

The public disagrees
Americans don’t believe the economy is getting better.
A recent survey of 2,000 adults by Affirm found 59 percent believe the economy is mired in recession.
Donald Trump spoke to these fears and Biden’s failures in a speech at a rally in North Carolina.
Trump compared the good shape he left the economy in when he left office in 2020 to the ditch Joe Biden and Kamala Harris drove it into.
“When I left office, I handed Kamala and Crooked Joe Biden a surging economy with NO INFLATION. The 30-year mortgage rate was 2.6%. Gasoline had reached $1.87 a gallon. The African American poverty rate was down 7%. The Hispanic-American poverty rate was down 8% . . .” Trump began.
“In 4 short years under President Trump, we passed the largest tax cuts in history, the largest regulation cuts in history, we unleashed American energy, and real incomes surged by more than $4,200 in 48 months. We had the strongest economy in history,” Trump added.

This message of compare and contrast on the economy between himself and Kamala Harris is the path to reversing Harris’ momentum in the polls.
