Jean-Pierre Claims “Polls Don’t Tell The Whole Story” As Americans Disapprove Of Biden’s Economy
On 7/19/2023, a reporter asked White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “A new Monmouth Poll shows that Americans still disapprove of the President’s handling of inflation. They are by and large split on his handling of jobs and unemployment. So, a few weeks into this new Bidenomics push, how do you rate how you guys are doing?

KJP: So, look, the polls don’t tell the whole story. They don’t tell the full story, and we understand that. The data shows the combination of unemployment and inflation is at near historic lows. That’s what we have seen. Consumer confidence is increasing, and also wages are rising. That’s what certainly the data is showing … But as we believe it, you know, the polls don’t tell the entire story. And so we’re going to continue to have the conversation. We’re going to continue to have a conversation with the American people.

Reporter: How long do you think it’s going to take for the public to start —

KJP: I mean, I — you know, I —
Reporter: — feeling differently about the economy?

KJP: I don’t have a timeline for you. But we know, just looking at the midterms — right? — the results of the midterms — Americans want us to continue to work and build on the historic actions that we have taken. They want to see a lowering — us continue to work, the President to continue to work on lowering costs. That is what matters to them

Q: Why now? So it rolls out next year as voters begin to vote for the presidential election?
Reporter: But why not — why do this now? Why not in the first year of the presidency? Why now? So it rolls out next year, as voters begin to vote for the —

KJP: Yeah.
Reporter: — presidential election, or —

KJP: … we were able to pass last year in the Inflation Reduction Act. It’s going to lower costs for energy, going to continue to lower costs on healthcare. These are actions that the President did. This is what — we talk about Bidenomics. This is it. This is what we were able to do in the first two years … So, the President has taken action — actions over and over again to deal with what Americans really care about: the economy. And he wants to continue to do that, continue to lower costs.

Karine Jean-Pierre Claims “Bidenomics” Is “Lowering Costs.” Prices Are Up And Wages Down Under Biden
KJP said, “The council’s work is another example of Bidenomics at work that is lowering costs and creating a more level playing field”

Q: new regulatory burdens leave economy worse off? A: we are very confident
Reporter: Republican lawmakers and some business group have this criticism that these efforts will lead to greater regulatory costs that leave the economy worse off. How do you ensure that any new regulatory burdens don’t undermine the savings you’re trying to generate for consumers?

KJP: Look, so, we are — we are very confident in — in the actions that we announced today … when you think about these big corporations that are gouging — they’re gouging Americans. So, the President is going to continue to do the work.
