The inflation rate is the highest it’s been in over 40 years and gas prices all over the U.S. are at record highs and rising. That might make you wonder how bad things would have been if President Biden had been able to print a few trillion more dollars by having the rest of his “Build Back Better” passed.
MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough spoke with former Obama “car czar” Steve Rattner today and both agreed that Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin basically saved the country from further economic damage by not supporting the bulk of Biden’s “Build Back Better”:

Grabien News founder Tom Elliott then served up a reminder that Scarborough, who agreed with Rattner in the above video that Sen. Manchin deserves thanks for blocking the additional spending monstrosity, once offered the Dems advice about how to go about passing BBB:
Interesting how @JoeNBC is pretending he’s always been on the side of common sense — when in fact as recently as January he was giving Democrats advice on how to get BBB passed. pic.twitter.com/Sl96dbtXa4
