President Biden's dismal debate performance means, in addition to many other things, that the Left will have to ramp up the BS about how great everything's going thanks in part to "Bidenomics" to make up for what can now not be dismissed as "cheap fakes."
That's where New York Times' Nobel Laureate economist Paul Krugman will come in handy for Dems who are trying to drag Biden across the finish line.
"Inflation looks beaten" everybody:
In other news, inflation looks beaten. The blip a few months ago looks like start-of-year price resets, and what’s left is lagged housing costs pic.twitter.com/OsBPCPC2vo

The last time you went grocery shopping did it feel like inflation was beaten? Well, in this case Krugman's declaration of defeated inflation doesn't include food... or energy... or housing:
idiots. all of them. https://t.co/BD4W5FYTuF pic.twitter.com/InUxXPpwN1

So, not including the things people most need to survive, inflation isn't really hitting us that hard. Biden's economic advisers will be quoting Krugman in the coming days.
Excluding food, energy and housing.

Inflation is so "beaten" that Krugman felt no need to leave the replies open so everybody can share their happiness that the era of Bidenflation is over! Wait, that's not what happened:

When people in the White House cite "economic experts" to try and prove how great Bidenomics is going they're referring to people like Krugman.
