he s actually done. so there s never any upside in letting joe biden speak injo public. d but unfortunately for the white house, sometimes you don t have a choice. disasters happenn ha. and when they do, the public expect somebody to pretend to be president. the american economy a is currently a disaster. therefore, joe biden had to h talk. so his aides dutifully let him out to the podium today to say something edifying about it. what happened next has got to be one of the weirdest presidential briefings ever conducted. new economic numbers show has declined for two quarters in a row. that s the definition of a recession. we re in a recession. that s why joe biden had tofi hold the briefingng. and yet biden never once mentioned those numbers, not a single time other than that, mrs. lincoln, how was the play? it was completely bizarre. instead, biden simply announced that there is no recession in the united states no matter what you may have noticed aboutt your own country. i
to be two consecutive quarterse of negative gdp growth in a row. and then you have white housese officials here to say no, no, no, that s not what a recession is . it s something else. s how is that not redefining recession? because that s not rthe definition. okay, so ignore the tape of janet yellen. we shouldn t have played that. it s hard to think clearlyno the nor how mind bogglingly repulsivere she is ignore all the work she s done herself to destroy the american economy when she ran the federalic reserve. listen toan what they re saying. two consecutive quarters ofe qu declining gdp. he that s not the definition of recession. really. we thought it was we thought that for about 50 years. it turns out we re insane. we re hallucinating lucy in the sky with diamonds stuff and the mediawith have confirmed it. this is from politico. quote,e, the white house is pretty obviously right that even two quarters of shrinking would not show the economy is currently in recession.
