CNN Host Jake Tapper slammed the Biden White House on Thursday for being ‘out of touch and in denial’ after it tried to claim the U.S. wasn’t in recession in spite of two quarters of negative GDP growth.
As The Daily Caller reports:
Tapper pressed senior adviser to President Joe Biden, Gene Sperling, on the president denying the nation is in a recession. The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) released a report Thursday finding the GDP declined by 0.9% in the second consecutive quarter of 2022.
…
“Doesn’t this semantic debate risk making the White House seem as if you’re in denial and out of touch with Americans who are really struggling out there?” Tapper asked.
…
The adviser argued the country witnessed historic job growth in 2021 and touted the 2.7 million jobs and 3% growth in the private sector within the first half of 2022, which he claimed is inconsistent with the “historical definition” of a recession.
“But it’s been two quarters in a row of negative GDP growth,” Tapper said. “That is an ugly fact, and traditionally that has been the colloquial way a recession has been defined.”
During 2021 the White House had previously echoed ‘experts’ who had claimed that high inflation would be ‘transitory’ phenomena which would be over in a short period of time.
Rare moment, Tapper trying to be fair and balanced with a guest that is obviously not.
Uranium-233 is a fissile isotope of uranium that is bred from thorium-232 as part of the thorium fuel cycle. Uranium-233 was investigated for use in nuclear weapons and as a reactor fuel. It has been used successfully in experimental nuclear reactors and has been proposed for much wider use as a nuclear fuel. Will not explode, Nuclear reactors instead of Chinese solar panels.
I have ZERO sympathy for CNN, yhey can burn in hell. I would NEVER watch then after the constant lies & the way they treated President Trump.
Tapper is wrong even when he’s right. His grade was total zero F. Now is is .001 F.
Manchin like Tapper is a political hack & knows the election year value of changing the lie. Even when he’s right he’s wrong as a person.
Looks like some of the left-wing stations are beginning to “see the light!”
Nah, they see election strategy.
Biden has fouled up every thing he touched. Look at the southern border, anyone who can walk is coming thru. There is not places for them and the people coming add not value to the US. We cannot supply enough of our own crude oil to keep gasoline prices to pre Biden years. His new law to raise taxed in the height of inflation is most stupid thing ever proposed. And there are more but time does not allow
Trapper is out of touch with reality. Biden is not running the show. He’s a puppet along with most of the current administration in congress. The real enemies of this nation are pulling the strings and using the puppets to distract American citizens from the real war being waged against this nation. “We the People” are being divided and distracted by the puppet show so that we don’t focus on the election fraud or the invasion of this country by illegal aliens crossing our borders. Few are paying any attention to our collapsing economy or the undermining of our Constitution. Our corrupted public education system has given us generations of “graduates” who have no idea about the duties and responsibilities of Citizens in a Constitutional Republic or of our responsibility to maintain control over our elected representatives in congress.
Well, you know, their just making things up as they go.
So…CNN has been.given the go-ahead to sacrifice Biden so that when he is removed, Harris can.swoop in and “save the day”, thereby getting massive public approval?
