People lining up in all kinds of vehicles just to get a box of food in their trunk. How quickly we forget!\u201d Biden shouted, waving his finger in the air. \u201cPeople were hurting. And what did the MAGA crowd want to do? Forget it. Forget it. This is the United States of America. The idea that people would have to wait in line an hour, an hour and a half to get a box of food in their trunk.

Free! Free! We\u2019ll work it out with the internet companies. Nearly 40% of households in America will qualify. We can\u2019t be a country where a mother has to drive up to a McDonald\u2019s parking lot in the evening with her child just so he can get on to the internet to do his homework. This is the United States of America \u2026\u201d Biden exclaimed.<\/p>\n<p>Toward the end of his speech, Biden touted the \u201cfiscal responsibility\u201d of his policies. He criticized former President Donald Trump\u2019s deficits during his term, while giving Trump a new nickname. \u201cThis is about fairness. This is about dignity, it\u2019s about fiscal responsibility,\u201d Biden said. \u201cMy Republican colleagues say these programs to help the working class and middle class people, they say that\u2019s why we have inflation. They\u2019re dead wrong. Under my predecessor, the great MAGA king, the deficit increased every single year he was president. The first year of my presidency, the first year, I reduced the deficit, literally reduced the deficit by $350 billion. First year. And this year, we\u2019re on track to cut the federal deficit by [$1.5 trillion], the biggest decline in debt ever in American history.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Biden refers to Trump as \u201cthe great MAGA king.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/tkONV6dbxf\">pic.twitter.com\/tkONV6dbxf<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Greg Price (@greg_price11) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/greg_price11\/status\/1524507298906923019?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 11, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/biden-says-fiscal-responsibility-is-one-of-the-values-of-his-enormous-5-8-trillion-budget-proposal\">The\u00a0Daily Wire<\/a> has previously reported, the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget notes that the reduction in deficits over Biden\u2019s term comes from the previous disbursement of COVID-19 related spending.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Biden fired another shot at Congressional Republicans, repeating days-old claims about the so-called \u201cUltra-MAGA\u201d agenda. \u201cI believe in bipartisanship. [But] right now the majority of our Republican friends just see it differently,\u201d he said. \u201cThey don\u2019t want to solve inflation by lowering costs, they want to solve it by raising taxes and lowering your income. Now you think I\u2019m making this up, if I didn\u2019t see the actual document, I\u2019d think I was making it up \u2026 Senator Rick Scott of Florida laid out a plan in writing.
