CLAIM: President Joe Biden on Friday claimed that the American people know that they are better off financially than they were before his presidency.
“I think they know they’re better off financially than they were before. It’s a fact,” Biden said. (X Video) Verdict: False and false.
Biden is making two claims here. First, that the American people are better off than they were before his presidency. Second, that the American people know that they are better off.
Both are untrue.

Joe Biden can't change his diaper or tie his shoes. His minions are the ones trying to con everyone. They think we're all stupid. They will regret that.

Every American is much worse off. Average Americans have high costs, because of the inflation. Investors have the about the same nominal value as when Biden took office, but the purchasing power is 15% less. The economy is teetering under all the debt. The movement away from the dollar to other currencies will impact every American, as the inflation cannot be shared with other countries.

What category is he talking about? Everyone in DC and the surrounding radius? K Street and their cohorts? How many millions of illegals given a free pass as well as a free ride? Irresponsible deadbeat student loan borrowers and the brainwashing centers that zombify them? (Zombify is a word! Huh!) Illicit green orgs peddling unicorn turds in exchange for billions in grants? Ukrainian kickback warmongers? Drag queens?
Okay, now that I think about it - yeah, that claim is probably correct, but not the reasoning he would have us believe.

Why lightening doesn't strike this moron dead at the podium when he says this crap is beyond me. I know he is demented, I know the vp is worthless and not very bright, I know EVERYTHING has gone up in price, I know the American public is spending close to $7000 or more a year because of inflation, I know that I need to be guarded anytime I leave my home and especially if I go into a store, I know this Clown Car Administration is full of lies, FJB I know more than you will ever comprehend. Your handlers are idiots, you are an idiot. Get away from us and leave us alone. They do hate us, they do want total control over our lives, and they don't understand why we don't feel like kissing their butts and worshipping them. Are you better off today than you were three years ago? Hell no.

He's got to be talking about the illegals. They're the only ones better off since he became president.

Killing the American Dream
Since Joe Biden took office in January 2020 the U.S. money supply has increased over 32% and the inflation rate has risen every month he has been in office. Overall inflation has now reached nearly 20%.
Interest rates continue to rise with little effect on inflation.
The National Debt on January 1, 2020 was 26 trillion dollars, it is now rapidly approaching 34 trillion dollars and is reported to consume nearly 50% of GDP under the current interest rates.
A Budget short fall of 1.4 trillion dollars is predicted for 2023.
Gasoline prices have doubled, and food is up over 20%.
Credit card debt has reached over 1 trillion dollars, an- all time- high, and can only increase due to the current economic disaster.
Mortgage interest rates are rapidly approaching 8%.
The Biden Administration having given Ukraine 104 billion dollars in aid continues to throw money down that rat hole while ignoring domestic disasters like the devastating fires in Hawaii and the chemical spill in East Palestine OH.
If these statistics don't scare the hell out of you and make you fear for your country and its future, there is something wrong with your perspective of the current conditions.

He must think we are as stupid as he is.
We're not stupid and we're a heck of a lot worse off.

PS: If FJB believes that Hunter is innocent, lithium batteries are the answer to the world's problems, the border is closed, Harris is qualified, and Americans are on the cusp of embracing plant based "meat" I am sure he believes that he is the best president EVER. And Americas do love him and we are just pulling his leg.

Biden seriously misrepresented his connection to the number of jobs that he has created across the USA when he said that he has created about 13 million jobs since he assumed office. That is not correct, as over 9 million of those jobs existed before the Democrat forced shutdown of much of the U.S. economy during the COVID pandemic. After the pandemic essentially ended, with the economy recovering, those same 9 million jobs and the employees who held them then resumed operation. So those 9 million jobs were not in anyway created by Biden. It’s probable that Biden also misrepresented other job figures that Biden read off his teleprompter. If history is a guide, the monthly increase in job numbers just released may well be fraudulently put out there by the Democrat run Labor Dept. and the White House to allow Biden to come out to take political credit for the job numbers, and give false credit to his bogus and incompetent Bidenomics programs. That misrepresentation of the job numbers has occurred in the past and after the smoke clears the job numbers are then recalculated to the apparent correct numbers without comment or notice. The American people can see if Bidenomics is working or not by checking how much groceries and the other necessities of life are costing them anytime they go shopping these days, and that is not a pretty number. Notice that Biden does not last long cognitive ability wise after he leaves his teleprompter, as this morning while attempting to answer media questions, his mind wandered off far enough for Biden to, off the cuff, start uttering strange words in relation to some dog swimming in a lake. He then immediately left the room.

Keep talking Joe. In addition to your rapid physical deterioration, these nonsensical statements will help conservatives push you out of office. Your 180 on the border wall has upset the left wingers, and you may have to pardon your own son for being the bagman of the Biden Crime Family. Keep talking. Even CNN knows your are full of it.

This is how sick Joe Biden and democrats are. Telling you one thing while you watch your IRA and savings accounts disappear before your eyes. These elitists have never put gas in their cars or have gone grocery shopping. All they do is live off of the taxpayers dime. Government jobs where they barely work 6 months out of the year. Pathetic and appalling.
