Jessica Tarlov Defends Joe Biden’s ‘Tremendous Economic Record’

EXCERPT:

TARLOV: “But, Joe Biden has a tremendous economic record to run on. There is a nifty chart floating around social media, everyone should check it out. The U.S. has the highest post-pandemic growth in the G7 and the lowest inflation, all the countries we compare ourselves to. 13.1 million jobs created, so yes, all the ones that were lost during Covid came back, and then we are gaining jobs at a faster clip than we did under the Trump presidency. 800k in manufacturing. There are articles all over talking about the manufacturing boom. We know unemployment is below 4%. We have 35,000 infrastructure projects. Everyone said that you’re not going to see a bridge for 20 years. There are Republican senators humiliating themselves on Twitter now, talking about how excited they are that the broadband is coming to them, $3 billion. Tommy Tuberville, I think that's how you pronounce it, says like, 'Broadband is coming,' and then Joe Biden gets to quote-retweet him and say, 'See you at the groundbreaking,' which is what he did to Mitch McConnell. John Cornyn has been doing it, Nancy Mace, Elise Stefanik, these are people who voted against the things that their constituents are now going to get and they want to take credit and they don’t deserve it for voting against it. 10.5 million new applicants for small business loans in the last two years. That's the fastest we've seen that happen over a two-year period. So — oh, one of my favorites, U.S. consumer confidence, we talked about that, it's at a 17-month high.”
