Joe Biden is deteriorating every day. What makes the problem more obvious is that he continues to repeat false claims, even when he’s been proven wrong in the past. He continues to say and do things that have been called out as being strange by others. Even though he knows it’s wrong, he can’t help himself and neither can his staff.
Biden spoke at the Philly Shipyard on Thursday about “Bidenomics'” “success”, and tried to sell wind and solar energy to union workers.
Biden, in an attempt to appear energized, came out after the news broke the previous day that his staff had to “accommodate” his issues. Then he blew it by stopping abruptly, throwing up his arms, and telling someone in the front row, “Don’t Jump!”

Biden repeats the same themes in almost every speech. I believe that this is to make his speeches easier. Even so, it doesn’t prevent him from making mistakes and having problems. Who built the middle class? Joe’s point of view keeps changing throughout this clip.

He claims that “they” did not build the middle class, and “they” did not build America. He’s probably talking about billionaires because he has said that in the past. It’s not accurate, as billionaires have created companies that have provided jobs for the middle class, and they have contributed just as much to building America as everyone else. He then confuses his script by saying that the middle class “built the middle class” and then claims the unions were responsible.
Biden makes the same false statements about his ability to lower the deficit and the fact that wages are growing faster than inflation. He was given a bottomless Pinocchio and just a Twitter Community Note in response to the second claim. Joe Biden was wrong when he said that real wages were up.
He then came up with another misleading statement. He wanted to claim credit for the falling inflation.
BIDEN: “Inflation — the lowest point in two years!”

Biden’s election brought inflation to 1.4 percent, but it is still higher today than it was when he took office, at around three percent. Prices have increased by 16.6 percent. Since he took over, we’ve paid hundreds more per month for goods. We all know this because we can see what has been flying out of all our wallets – all our money. Imagine how much gall it would take to claim that spending went up by 9.1 percent because of him.
Then. Biden talked about “wind.”

It sounds strange. In general, I’ll grant that he does sell some hot air. In this case, however, he is trying to talk — not very clearly — about the sale of rights for wind farms on the Gulf.
Biden is right that “we haven’t seen anything yet”, but not in a positive way. We reported previously that the Biden administration imposed all sorts of burdensome regulations upon the Maine lobstermen because they feared for the whales. Many are raising concerns about the possible harm to whales caused by the Biden administration because of its rush to build wind farms. Some people believe it is dangerous for the whales and environment because of the increase in dead whales that have been reported from wind farms near New Jersey or New York. The Government Accountability Office opened an investigation to determine the causes and effects of the deaths, amid calls for a moratorium until further studies are done.
But Biden isn’t quite done yet. After he finishes, pauses, and then appears to be lost, Biden has another moment of confusion. He must ask for assistance, going in one direction and then turning around to go in the opposite direction.

Biden just keeps getting worse.
