President Joe Biden has declared that he chooses not to “take any of the blame for inflation,” claiming “ it was already there when I got here, man.”
Biden made the remarks on Friday during a “Jobs For Americans” press conference.
“Do I take any blame for inflation? No,” Biden snapped when asked.
“Why not,” the reporter who asked the original question queried.
Biden replied, “Because it was already here when I got here, man. Remember what the economy was like when I got here? Jobs were hemorrhaging, inflation was rising. We weren’t manufacturing a damn thing here. We were in real economic difficulty. That’s why I don’t, thank you.”

The inflation rate was at 1.4% when Biden took office, and had held at 1.5% in each of the last 10 months leading up to his inauguration.
Within months of Biden taking office, the inflation rate spiked above 5% in May 2021 and would eventually reach 9.1% in June 2022 – a figure not seen in over 40 years.
The most recent available data, from December 2022, shows that the national inflation rate was 6.5% as of just over a month ago.
Based on the data at hand, Valiant News rates Biden’s claim that the current inflation levels were “already there when I got here, man” as FALSE.
During a recent public appearance, Biden, 80, relayed an anecdote about a gaffe he made in public that led people to question his mental competence.
“I uh, I said that, uh, when I was seeking the nomination I said, ‘Take a seat, everybody!’ and there wasn’t a single chair in the place,” the president recounted.
Biden continued, “They said, ‘That Biden really is stupid, he really doesn’t know a…’” before trailing off and looking for a Congressman whose firstname he apparently misremembered.

Biden never takes responsibility for the consequences of his actions or policies. The impact of inflation on me and my family only started after he came to office. It should be noted though that Biden is quick to take credit for other peoples accomplishments. When problems arise he doesn’t hesitate to pass the buck. I never trusted Biden when he was a Senator, and I still don’t!
