However, as fact-checkers pointed out when Biden made the same assertion
during a CNN town hall last week, inflation actually was at 1.4% when he
took office.
But Trump is the one who lies all the time. We should vote for Biden
because he doesn't lie, they say.
The latest gaffe by the president
It's not a gaffe. A gaffe is an unintentional mistake. This is an
intentional bald-faced lie. And so is the media downplaying it as a mere
gaffe. Biden is lying and the media is lying about his lies.
Biden's team knows what the inflation rate was when Biden took office
and they're intentionally lying about it because they know that the
grocery bill is something that Mr. & Mrs. Middle America are going to
vote on.
"Inflation is a lagging economic indicator. It is reported after prices have already risen, which means the data it uses is historical."
