The Biden administration’s economic gaslighting continues and has even been ramped up a notch as evidenced by this @POTUS quote tweet of WH press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre:
Our economy has gone from being on the mend to being on the move. And now, we’re outpacing the world. https://t.co/5x0qViW6Jd
— President Biden (@POTUS) May 21, 2022
That “world” the US is outpacing is the same one this administration is begging to pump more oil and asking to send baby formula.
But being a Democrat president means knowing that most of the media will have your back, and that was the case on CNN this week:
Happy talk on CNN. Ex-Time editor Rana Foroohar: "You have to remember, the U.S., as bad as things seem right now, we're still the sort of prettiest house on the ugly block, if you want to use a metaphor." pic.twitter.com/1Bb6Dx0Nh4

Biden should make “prettiest house on the ugly block” his new slogan just so “Build Back Better” stops getting mercilessly mocked.
Just imagine what they’d be saying on CNN if a certain former president was still in office and this was happening.
Hey, it's not so bad under Biden…oozes the network that was allergic to reporting a good economy under Trump. https://t.co/PEcKjdcD0J

CNN is telling you to quit whining about prices. Things really aren't so bad. I wouldn't mind, except that the entire time Trump was president, they screamed about how horrible things were from the mountaintops. The difference in tone and bias is obvious. https://t.co/trmZvO1feL

Just yesterday CNN reported that the Biden White House was in “crisis mode” over a baby formula “mess they didn’t create,” so the Democrats will be pleased with the cable net’s ongoing spin efforts.
Not bad?
When foreign countries have a telethon for baby formula for the USA is it then “bad enough” to talk about it then?

People often ask how Biden’s approval could even be in the high 30s, but noticing how much support he continues to get in large segments of the media helps explain at least some of it.
