President Biden emerged today from a lid that the White House called yesterday before noon.
In the wake of the midterm elections yesterday (with some races still being counted), Biden spoke and took some questions from reporters. Biden started by saying there was no “red wave,” that Tuesday was a “great day for democracy.” Oh, and Biden added one other thing:
BIDEN: "It was a good day, I think, for democracy…"
*coughs*

For a second there we thought Biden brought a Shetland pony with him.
Asked about the Republicans likely taking control of the House by a slim margin, and possibly the Senate at some point, Biden named the kinds of Republican legislation that he’d automatically veto:

LOL. Seriously?
Apparently only Democrat proposals that worsen inflation will be allowed (including the ironically-named Inflation Reduction Act).
I didn’t realize it can get any worse than it is now 🤡🤡

Exactly!
This is a joke, right? The bills he passed are working and GOP bills making it worse? MMMkkkk https://t.co/MYwyr108M5

At least now we know that the White House’s post-midterm strategy is to keep the gaslighting dialed up to eleven.
Biden added this:

If that doesn’t boost your confidence nothing will!
