While speaking to reporters at a Delaware beach Monday, he defended his approach to runaway inflation and his so-called \u201cclean\u201d energy policies.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cMy dear mother used to have this expression: for everything lousy, something good will happen if you look hard enough for it.,\u201d Biden stated. \u201cWe have a chance here to make a fundamental turn towards renewable energy. Electric vehicles. Not just electric vehicles, but across the board.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>His comments were immediately interpreted as \u201ctone deaf\u201d to most Americans, who are now paying more than $5 a gallon for gas. The President said he will decide by the end of the week whether to pause the federal gas tax.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Gas prices are at record highs, but don\u2019t worry, Democrats think you can just go buy a $50,000 electric car.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Rep. Jim Jordan (@Jim_Jordan) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Jim_Jordan\/status\/1527635417692086275?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 20, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.) appears to break with the some of the White House\u2019s claims about the economy. During an interview Monday, the Democrat said \u201cfor a lot of people\u201d we are in a recession. He added, \u201cif you can\u2019t afford gas you are in a recession.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Clyburn\u2019s comments appear to contradict President Biden\u2019s insistence that a recession is not inevitable as his administration attempts to alleviate high inflation. Despite Biden\u2019s claims, recent polling indicates most Americans already believe the nation is in a recession.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/gop-attorneys-general-fight-bidens-transgender-push\/\">GOP Attorneys General Fight Biden\u2019s Transgender Push<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Joe Biden stops and speaks to members of the media as he walks on the beach with his granddaughter Natalie Biden and daughter Ashley Biden, in Rehoboth Beach, Del., Monday, June 20, 2022.
