Biden Preaches Patience to Voters Spooked by Economic Tumult
NBC Chicago | 10/09/2022 | Josh Boak and Zeke Miller

When it comes to reassuring Americans about an economy that’s an election-year challenge for his party, President Joe Biden is telling the country to hold on.

Loosely?

Biden argued that the newest numbers are solid and have slowed in recent months in a way that points toward inflation easing. Major oil-producing countries led by Saudi Arabia and Russia dealt him a “disappointment” with their decision last week to cut production, but the U.S. government forecasts that domestic output should increase by an average of roughly 840,000 barrels a day next year.

(“I guarantee you. We’re going to end fossil fuel,” candidate Biden told a climate activist in September 2019.)

Speaking at a Volvo drivetrain factory in Hagerstown, Maryland, Biden tried to make the case once more that lots more factory jobs were on the horizon.

… but not for drivetrains for internal combustion engines.

“This is the progress we need to see,” the president said. “In the short term, the transition to a more stable growth that continues to deliver for workers and families while bringing inflation down. In the long term, the economy built on a firmer foundation. We still have a lot of work to do. We’re building a different economy than before, a better one, a stronger one.”

    Stepford Brandon asks for your understanding of the recurring glitches in his programming. Diz is debugging as fast as he can. Until the bugs are all worked out, please ignore the Easter Bunny and concentrate on the overstuffed chair manipulating him.

    • It’s all about the money —

      Gun laws will be bolstered

      Corn Pop, Amtrak — no joking, Fat
