Biden's Economic Achilles' Heel
Inflation is rapidly turning into President Joe Biden's Achilles' heel. In the midst of an economy that is by every other measure booming, inflation remains the unsolved problem that affects all Americans at the grocery store, at the gas pump, and at the used car lot. Unlike more esoteric economic indicators, people see inflation's effects very directly, as they pay more for basic supplies every week. This represents an enormous political problem not just for Democrats but for Joe Biden personally.
As always, I have to begin with a standard caveat. Presidents always get a lot more credit for economic good times than they usually deserve and a lot more blame when economic times get rough than they are really responsible for. But those are the rules of politics, and they apply pretty equally to whomever happens to be sitting in the Oval Office. No president has a giant lever marked "The U.S. Economy" that they can shove forward or back to either heat things up or slow them down. Their influence is a lot more limited and indirect than that.
Add to this the unprecedented nature of the pandemic we all may (finally!) be emerging from, and economic indicators since 2019 (pre-pandemic) have been so all over the map that conventional economic wisdom has been proven wrong over and over again. Whenever you hear "economic indicator X is up Y percentage points from this time last year," consider where we were at this point last year. Vaccines were scarce, lockdowns were in effect, it was in no way any sort of "normal baseline" economy. And yet, that's the way annual figures work; they take the baseline of a year ago and measure against it. It would probably make more sense to measure current conditions against this point in 2019, but that's not how the economic formulas work.
But all of that is purely academic, especially when it comes to the political story being told by politicians and the media about the economy. Which is the real problem for Biden. Inflation has been hitting 40-year-highs for months now, and nobody has any real clue when the end will be in sight. The economic models show it should be coming down, and economists are mostly sanguine that it'll drop to around three percent by the end of the year. But right now it's at 7.5 percent, and it's been historically high for a number of months now.
That is the story. That is what the media is talking about. And that's a real problem for both Biden and the Democrats, heading into a congressional midterm election year.
President Biden has appeared slow to react to the problem. Initially he stood behind the economists' predictions that this would be a temporary blip caused by first the Delta variant of COVID-19 and then by Omicron. These predictions still may come to pass -- we are only just now emerging back into some semblance of a normal economy. With the rapid decline of the Omicron wave, people are going back to work, masks are coming off, and a lot of the other disruptions in everyone's lives are going away as well. That means the February numbers should be a lot less impacted by the pandemic than the numbers for the past few months. This is a worldwide phenomenon as well -- factories in China and other countries that had been closed due to Omicron should now be coming back online, or about to do so. This could alleviate the shortage of basic computer chips that are now included in just about every consumer item out there above the technological level of hammers and ladders. In particular, this could help the automobile industry get back to normal -- which would have the spillover effect of calming down the used car marketplace. Those two things are big drivers of the current inflationary spike, so if they ease it could have a dramatic effect on the monthly numbers.
Of course, that's assuming the Canadian border gets reopened so the car companies in the U.S. and their suppliers in Canada can have a steady flow of parts across the border again. But that's a separate (and, more likely, a more temporary) problem.
Biden did make decisive moves to try to solve the underlying supply chain issues, right before the Christmas shopping season. Those efforts have been slowly paying off, but he hasn't really shown the same urgency over the inflation issue. It's easy to understand why -- there are only a limited number of things he can even do to affect inflation. The Federal Reserve raising interest rates may be the most dramatic step, but that's not something the White House is even supposed to influence.
Biden has been giving the issue a little more lip service and generalized attention since about December, to be fair. He's called in many big companies' leaders for personal meetings, he's threatened antitrust investigations against some industries (the meat-packing industry, in particular), and he's issued a few statements trying to empathize with people's pain at the cash register.
Biden and his team know there is simply no easy answer -- no magic solution that will make inflation evaporate with the morning dew. This makes it harder for Biden to appear decisive and on top of the problem, obviously. They'll probably hold a few more high-level meetings with industry captains and Biden will probably address it more often when he publicly speaks, but there really isn't all that much more he can do. There just is no magic bullet available.
Biden and his fellow Democrats really need a good inflation number next month. They really need to see inflation going down and not further up. If they can tell people it was indeed temporary and due entirely to the pandemic and point to inflation easing, then the public may wind up giving Biden the benefit of the doubt, and chalk up high grocery prices among all the other depravations during the pandemic era. If no new variant rampages across the country in the meantime, by summer people will have largely put all of the pandemic era thinking squarely in the past.
But if inflation continues to stay high (even if it does not keep increasing) then Republicans are going to continue to hammer Democrats on the issue. Right now, it's about the most potent real issue (as opposed to the myriad culture war issues they raise) they have left to hit Biden on. If masks and vaccines and mandates are all things of the past by summer, then that robs the GOP of a large part of their campaign strategy, because harping on about what happened in 2020 and 2021 is not going to impress many voters. But if inflation is still high, then Republicans can paint the entire economy as a disaster (which is simply not the case) and use it as a political bludgeon against just about the entire Democratic agenda.
The overall economy can be incredibly strong and it won't matter politically at all to the Democrats' chances at the ballot box. Because one Achilles' heel can negate all that other strength.

Biden should just level with the American people. We had a choice between keeping industries afloat and the jobs that come with it by spending ton of money but with the real threat of inflation or we could let these industries crumble, not have the inflation (or hyperinflation) but also considerably less jobs. Both parties took the former...
But the current inflation is a weird one. Sure there is inflation by running up our collective credit card but there is also a lot of bad business decisions and bottlenecks caused by COVID. The automakers dug their own grave. They cancelled too many of their chip contracts while at the same time the chip fabs are in high demand. What, you want to cancel your order, OK we got tons of demand. Oh, you need chips? Well, we gave your slot to someone else, next slot 14 months. Lumber has gone through the roof but there is a large back log of logs. It's all mill capacity. They cut back production and took downtime. Some due to COVID some just not reading the market. Much of the increased shipping costs have to do with poor global container management. Oil is just returning to normal but after a couple of years of artificially low fuel costs and huge reduction in driving, the normal cost of fuel hurts.
Some of this is theoretically fixable by the president. A lot of it is global and out of his control. And some of it Biden is actively trying to fix but won't see benefits for another couple of years...
pie is no joke.
Russ,
Mueller never looked for evidence of Trump’s fictional legal catchphrase… but there is plenty of evidence of Trump’s campaign working with the Russians that Mueller did uncover. Putin got his money’s worth with Trump!
Sure.. Whatever you have to tell yourself to make it thru your day.. :D
I see you STILL ignore the FACT that Biden has been more friendly to Putin and even gave Putin his Nord Stream 2 Pipeline, while at the same time, scroo'ing over Americans over the Keystone pipeline..
Face reality, Russ.. The FACTS clearly show that Biden is more of a Putin puppet than President Trump EVER was...
I noticed how you gave up on that BS claim that it's really the GOP that wants to defund the police..
That was a real loser of a comment Russ.. Just shows how desperate you are.. :D
JL,
pie is no joke
As usual, I disagree...
Why did the apple pie go to the dentist?
It needed a filling.
If five kids can eat ten apple pies in an hour, how many pies can two kids eat?
Zero since the five kids ate all the pies.
What is the most important thing to put in a slice of cherry pie?
Your teeth!
What will happen to a person with a banana allergy if they eat a banana cream pie?
They'll have a banana-phylactic shock.
What will happen if you mix an apple pie with a Christmas tree?
You'll get a pine-apple pie.
Once again, the facts prove you wrong.. :D

So how bout that Canadian Truckers Strike, eh!!?? :D
Leave it to the Right Wing to show the Left Wing how to REALLY protest..
You don't have to burn and pillage and rape and murder in a protest to be effective.. Burn down entire minority neighborhoods... Put thousands and thousands of minority Americans out of work...
I am LOVING the huge angst coming from the Left Wingery and Democrats over this legitimate protests..
No one's been killed.. No buildings have been burned and destroyed..
And yet, the Canadian Truckers Protest is 20x more effective as TWENTY TWO YEARS of Democrat BLM and AntiFa riots!!!
Ya just GOTTA love the irony, eh?? :D
Hopefully we'll see that kind of awesome style of protesting here in the US.. SUPER BOWL SUNDAY!!! Wouldn't that be a hoot!!! :D
LOVIN' IT!!! :D

TORONTO (AP) — The Biden administration urged Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government Thursday to use its federal powers to end the truck blockade by Canadians protesting the country’s COVID-19 restrictions, as the bumper-to-bumper demonstration forced auto plants on both sides of the border to shut down or scale back production.
For the fourth straight day, scores of truckers taking part in what they dubbed the Freedom Convoy blocked the Ambassador Bridge connecting Windsor, Ontario, to Detroit, disrupting the flow of auto parts and other products between the two countries.

Inflation surges 7.5% on an annual basis, even more than expected and highest since 1982
The consumer price index for all items rose 0.6% in January, driving up annual inflation by 7.5%.
That marked the biggest gain since February 1982 and was even higher than the Wall Street estimate.
Core inflation rose 6%, which also was a notch above expectations.
Real earnings for workers increased just 0.1% on the month when accounting for inflation.
Weekly jobless claims declined to 223,000, below the 230,000 estimate.

Higher Inflation Is Probably Costing You $276 a Month
Who is feeling the price squeeze the most? Millennials, Latinos and the middle class are at the top of the list
The average U.S. household is spending an additional $276 a month because of inflation that is rising at its fastest rate in 40 years, a new economic analysis showed.
The squeeze stems from higher prices across a range of products and services, including cars, gasoline, furniture and groceries.
Inflation accelerated to a 7.5% annual rate in January, the Labor Department said Thursday, reaching a new four-decade high as consumer demand and supply constraints continued to push prices higher. Inflation has been above 5% for the past eight months.

Justin Trudeau's Ceau?escu Moment
Denouncing truckers for "unacceptable views," Canada's Prime Minister skipped town rather than face evidence of his own unpopularity. Is neoliberalism finally cracking?
On the morning of the 21st of December, 1989, Romanian General Secretary Nicolae Ceau?escu was in a foul mood. The Berlin Wall had fallen, and Mikhail Gorbachev and George H.W. Bush had recently announced the end of the Cold War, making the end of Ceau?escu’s rule inevitable, though he couldn’t see this yet. Worse, his security leaders had just failed to violently put down protests in the city of Timisoara, a fact that enraged his wife Elena.
“You should have fired on them, and had they fallen, you should have taken them and shoved them into a cellar,” she said. “Weren’t you told that?”
Long one of the world’s most vicious dictators, Ceau?escu’s most recent plan for winning over the heartland was forcing half the country’s villagers to destroy their own homes — with pick-axes and hammers, if they couldn’t afford a bulldozer — and packing them into project apartments in new “agro-industrial towns,” for a “better future.” Despite this, and his long history of murder, terror, and spying, Ceau?escu to the end did not grasp that his unpopularity had an organic character. He was convinced ethnically Hungarian “terrorists” were behind the latest trouble.
https://taibbi.substack.com/p/justin-trudeaus-ceausescu-moment
So, apparently, Trudeau is a Ceau?escu-wannabee :eyeroll:
Ceausescu’s balcony will forever be a symbol of elite cluelessness. Even in the face of the gravest danger, a certain kind of ruler will never be able to see the last salvo coming, if doing so requires any self-examination. The neoliberal political establishment in most of the Western world, the subject of repeat populist revolts of rising intensity in recent years, seems to suffer from the same disability.
There may be no real-world comparison between a blood-soaked monster like Ceausescu and a bumbling ball-scratcher like Joe Biden, or an honorarium-gobbling technocrat like Hillary Clinton, or a Handsome Dan investment banker like Emmanuel Macron, or an effete pseudo-intellectual like Justin Trudeau. Still, the ongoing inability of these leaders to see the math of populist uprisings absolutely recalls that infamous scene in Bucharest. From Brexit to the election of Donald Trump to, now, the descent of thousands of Canadian truckers upon the capital city of Ottawa to confront Trudeau, a consistent theme has been the refusal to admit — not even to us, but to themselves — the numerical truth of what they’re dealing with.
That's what is so hilarious about this..
Democrats are failing, floundering, FLAILING and yet, they STILL believe they are on the right side of history...
The right side of morality...
The right side of justice...
And it's all so much self-delusion..
JUST like the Russia Collusion delusion..
I think that bests describes Democrats and Left Wingers for the past 6+ years..
DELUSIONAL..
Delusional that the people are on their side..
Delusional that they have the moral or legal or ethical high ground...
Simply delusional...
Trudeau is becoming the ultimate example. Truckers last month began protesting a January 22nd rule that required the production of vaccine passports before crossing the U.S.-Canadian border. Canadian truckers are reportedly 90% vaccinated, above the country’s 78% total, a key detail that’s been brazenly ignored by media in both countries determined to depict these more as “anti-vax” than “anti-mandate” protests (which seem to be about many things at once, but that’s another story). When an angry convoy descended upon the capital, Trudeau dismissed them in a soliloquy that can only be described as inspired political arson:
The small fringe minority of people who are on their way to Ottawa, who are holding unacceptable views that they are expressing, do not represent the views of Canadians…who know that following the science and stepping up to protect each other is the best way to ensure our rights, our freedoms, our values as a country.
A near-exact repeat of the “basket of deplorables” episode, Trudeau’s imperious description of “unacceptable” views instantly became a rallying cry, with people across the country lining the streets to cheer truckers while self-identifying as the “small fringe minority.” Everyone from high school kids to farmers and teachers and random marchers carrying jerrycans of fuel joined in as Trudeau’s own words were used to massively accelerate his troubles.
Trudeau is causing all of this just because less than 10% of all truckers are NOT vaccinated!!?????
ALL of this is over a measly 10%!!!?????
Seems more like it's an exercise in POWER...
Trudeau fled the city, removing his family to what aides called a “secret location” for “security reasons,” a politically disastrous move denounced by just about everyone with a microphone or a Twitter account, including members of his own party. Liberal MP Joël Lightbound took things a step further. He ripped Trudeau’s politics as divisive, saying his government needs to recognize people have “legitimate concerns” while adding, acidly, “Not everyone can earn a living on a MacBook at a cottage.” This has been a theme in the States, too, where the people most dickishly insistent on the necessity of lockdowns or mandates have tended to be Zoomer professionals spending the pandemic in pajamas.
Meanwhile, in a hilarious third-rate spoof version of American conventional wisdom — when Canadians try to imitate American pretensions, does it ever not end in a cringe-worthy self-own? — CBC announcer Nil Köksal went on air on January 28th and suggested the trucker protests were a Russian concoction. “Given Canada’s support of Ukraine in this current crisis with Russia,” she posited, to Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino, “there is concern that Russian actors could be continuing to fuel things as this protest grows, or perhaps even instigating it from the outset.”
Ahhh yes..

BLM-defund police legacy is more dead police officers, surging crime
The last year and a half in America has been a bloodbath of violent crime
"Defund police" is arguably the most destructive, idiotic political slogan in living memory. No serious person – certainly no elected leader worthy of any respect – should have ever supported it in practice or principle.
But many Democrats did, and there must be accountability for such insanity. Thousands of lives – including a record number of cops – have been lost to increased criminal violence because the Left told lies about law enforcement when it suited their politics.
2021 ends with record-breaking crime in cities after 'defund police' movementVideo
The causation of the national crime wave is straightforward. After the killing of George Floyd in May 2020, the Black Lives Matter movement mobilized behind the "defund police" slogan. The mainstream Democrat Party cynically promoted this anti-police narrative to rally their base in an election year. They pandered to BLM, because anything was justified in their minds to stop President Donald Trump, including widespread riots and anarchy in American cities.
https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/blm-defund-police-legacy-dead-police-surging-crime-buck-sexton
Of paramount importance was the lives that were lost due to Democrat DEFUND, DEMORALIZE, DEMONIZE THE POLICE Policies...
The rise of Democrat supported BLM terrorism is the root cause of the majority of this country's problems in the here and now..
Of lesser importance, but still an issue is the SIXTY MILLION DOLLARS that BLM con'ed out of business's and individuals..
Where's the millions, BLM???
Oh yea, that's right.. BLM "leaders" bought multiple million dollar mansions....
That's ya'all's Democrat Party today, people... :eyeroll:
The Democrats' rhetoric of "criminal justice reform" spiraled into recklessly soft on crime policies. "Defund police" led some jurisdictions like Austin, Texas, to dramatically cut back resources to cops, and then the city hit an all-time murder record for 2021. In Portland, Oregon police funding was cut and then the city decided- after over a 1,000 shootings in 2021- to officially "refund police" and add an extra $5 million on top of that.
There can be NO DOUBT as to what caused this crime tsunami of the last couple years..
With the political cover of BLM and the connivance of the Democrat Party, so-called progressive prosecutors felt empowered to seek absurdly weak sentences, even for violent career criminals. State legislatures in places like New York passed bail reform laws that made sure violent felons would be back out on the streets the same day – in many cases, within a few hours – of offending. In San Francisco, where thefts of under $950 are treated as a simple misdemeanor that requires no arrest, shoplifting and other crimes skyrocketed even more than the previous years of unbridled lawlessness in the Bay Area.
The American people have seen the results of the BLM-Democrat narrative: it made everything worse for everyone. Americans are now less safe on the streets, in their cars and homes. Minorities living in high crime areas suffer disproportionately from the massive surge in violent crimes. And police have taken the brunt of an emboldened criminal element in our society – in many cases, with their lives.
Democrats have royally stepped on their own wee-wees in the case of this violent crime tsunami...
There is simply NO WAY that Democrats will make Americans forget the last couple years...
There is only one outcome possible.. A massive repudiation of the Democrat Party and it's anti-America policies..
And it's coming.. Ho boy is it coming!!!!
Enough. BLM's anti-police rhetoric is reckless. Our law enforcement officers are not racists, nor are our criminal justice laws. Black Lives Matter not only failed to address "systemic inequality" in a meaningful way – it pushed falsehoods that hurt all Americans. Many people lost their property, security and even their lives because of big lies about criminal justice from the Left.
The Democrat Party needs to be held to account for its role in this. An electoral annihilation this fall would be a good start. And it would make us all safer.
If anyone has any facts to refute the last few comments...???

hehehehehehehe
THAT is what it's going to be like for Democrats in November.. :D
On topic, there's absolutely no way that inflation can be a major problem for Biden!! After all, he and the jackass that runs the Fed Res who caused the inflation, both promised us last year that it would be at most, only a "transitory" problem!!!
Of course, anybody with the slightest understanding of how` the monetary system works would know that financing the gov't or "stimulating" the economy by means of monetary inflation in lieu of taxation would produce price inflation, but obviously Biden and the Fed guys were not included in that group.
Apparently, Trudeau is in for a fight.. :D
'We're not backing down': Canadian truckers share message to Trudeau
Every trucker that spoke to Fox News said they would stay in Ottawa as long as it took,
OTTAWA, Ontario – Canadian truckers protesting in Ottawa want Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to know they will not leave until mandates are lifted, they told Fox News.
"We're not caving in, we're not moving, we're not backing down," Canadian trucker Joshua Singh told Fox News.
Truckers have been protesting in Ottawa for over two weeks as part of the "Freedom Convoy," calling for an end to the government's COVID-19 mandates. Trudeau demanded the "illegal blockades and occupations" stop, and Ontario declared a state of emergency Friday morning.

CNN political analyst slams Biden's response to inflation question: 'A terrible answer'
Biden cited 'Nobel laureates' and 'corporate leaders' during NBC interview
"I think it was back in July you said inflation was going to be temporary. I think a lot of Americans are wondering what your definition of temporary is," NBC's Lester Holt said to Biden in the Thursday interview.
Biden responded by calling Holt "a wise guy."
"According to Nobel laureates – 14 of them that contacted me – and a number of corporate leaders, it ought to be able to start to taper off as we go through this year. In the meantime, I’m going to do everything in my power to deal with the big points that are impacting most people in their homes," Biden later said after Holt asked him when relief from the "soaring inflation" could be expected.
"It was a terrible answer, and I would tell them that if they were looking me in the face," Sellers told CNN's John Berman.
"That fact is that nobody … wants to hear what Nobel laureates actually say about the problem," he added. "In fact, in that answer we would hear more about the solutions."
He claimed that inflation wasn't caused by Biden, but stated that it was still his problem to fix.

”You found a Left Wing Rag that says what you believe.”
And did ya hear that the DOJ re-released the Mueller Report with a lot of the formerly redacted content being made public? The newly released portions of the report further highlight Trump’s potentially criminal activities.

Yes, sir. Anyone with a brain cell who claims that Donald Trump hasn't broken the law has not read the Mueller Report.
