Sean Patrick Maloney (D-NY) is in a very tight race for a House seat in New York\u2019s 17th Congressional District with Republican Mike Lawler.<\/p>\n<p>Normally you would think that a DCCC Chair would be pretty safe. But Cook Political Report just moved the race to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cookpolitical.com\/analysis\/house\/new-york-house\/ny-17-rating-change-dccc-chair-maloney-moves-lean-democrat-toss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">toss-up on October 24<\/a>. RealClearPolitics also has it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/epolls\/2022\/house\/elections-map.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rated as a toss-up<\/a>. That\u2019s one more sign of how much trouble the Democrats are in, in the race for the House. Part of the problem is because of redistricting, a lot of the district is new to Maloney, so he doesn\u2019t necessarily have any goodwill built up with those voters.<\/p>\n<p>But Maloney just stepped on a rake when he was asked about how to address inflation. His response sounded a lot like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/rep-maloney-recalls-eating-chef-boyardee-kid-during-inflation-talk-says-what-families-have-do\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u201cLet them eat Chef Boyardee<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Earlier tonight I appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FoxNews?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@FoxNews<\/a> to discuss <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/spmaloney?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@spmaloney<\/a> telling residents to go eat <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChefBoyardee?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@ChefBoyardee<\/a> if gas prices and groceries go up. On Tuesday voters can <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FireMaloney?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">#FireMaloney<\/a> and we can finally tackle inflation and the cost of living. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/RTM3gJczcE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pic.twitter.com\/RTM3gJczcE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Mike Lawler (@lawler4ny) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lawler4ny\/status\/1589040350932652032?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">November 5, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cHudson Valley residents are feeling pain at the pump and at grocery stores, what have you done, and what do you plan to do to help solve our inflation problem?,\u201d Maloney was asked.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, well, I grew up in a family where, you know, if the gas price went up, the food budget went down,\u201d Rep. Maloney said. \u201cSo by this time of the week, we\u2019d be eating Chef Boyardee if that budget wasn\u2019t gonna change. So that\u2019s what families have to do. Here\u2019s what we should do,\u201d Maloney said before discussing actions that he says would lower inflation.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Maloney\u2019s team argues that his answer continued. But frankly, his full answer didn\u2019t help. It showed how clueless he was. He seemed completely cool with depleting our Strategic Petroleum Reserve\u2013as though that\u2019s an answer to the underlying problem of the high prices of gas and not Biden\u2019s attack on the energy industry.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re capping seniors\u2019 out-of-pocket costs in the Medicare program. That\u2019s a big deal. So now, only two thousand dollars a year will come out-of-pocket, rain or shine,\u201d Maloney said. \u201cThat allows seniors to budget. We\u2019re also negotiating, finally, in the Medicare program with the big prescription drug companies to lower the cost of everybody\u2019s prescription drugs. That\u2019s long overdue.\u201d [\u2026]\n<p>Maloney also said that \u201cwe\u2019ve released 90 million barrels from the strategic petroleum reserve, that\u2019s what\u2019s taken about $1.30 off the price of a gallon of gas. That\u2019s a big help.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve got to do more to keep that price from going back up and keep it coming down. And there\u2019s other things we can do. We can absolutely bring health insurance premiums down for those on the Affordable Care Act. We\u2019ve done that,\u201d he added. \u201cWe can pay for these things, by the way, with a tax on big corporations, so they will finally pay what they owe. We finally did that.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>He mentions bringing down gas prices, without noting how they\u2019re still far more than they were when Biden came in, because of Biden.<\/p>\n<p>He also blamed \u201cPutin\u2019s war\u201d and \u201cprice gouging,\u201d as opposed to the Democratic spending which sparked inflation.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s part of the strategy of the Inflation Reduction Act. And all of these strategies together \u2013 together with going after price gouging,by the way, because these big oil companies are making a fortune off of Putin\u2019s war and the rest. We\u2019ve got to make sure people aren\u2019t profiting off the war. All of these strategies together can help bring prices down,\u201d Maloney said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Biden was <a href=\"https:\/\/redstate.com\/nick-arama\/2022\/10\/31\/biden-pulls-out-one-more-desperate-ploy-to-try-to-influence-the-midterms-n652038\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">proposing a \u201cwindfall\u201d tax <\/a>on oil companies for making profits, to pretend that he was doing something about gas prices and the false claim of \u201cgouging.\u201d That would only result in driving gas prices up. That\u2019s where we\u2019re at with Democrats at this point: either they\u2019re trying to make things worse or they have no idea what they\u2019re doing \u2014 take your pick.<\/p>\n<p>Maloney doesn\u2019t help himself by saying that people should eat Chef Boyardee, then demonstrating that he doesn\u2019t understand how the Democrats have screwed up here\u2013and how he\u2019s cool with things that would make the situation worse.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats wonder why they are in such trouble, and may just lose this seat, as well as many others: It\u2019s this complete cluelessness.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>\nTrending on Redstate Video\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee chairman Rep.
