President Biden made a surprising number of statements this week when he spoke with CNN’s Erin Burnett, the New York Post wrote in a scathing editorial this week.
of the post The editorial board condemned Biden. About saying he was “just lying” in an editorial that featured an image of the president transformed into Pinocchio.
The White House has come under pressure from news organizations, particularly the New York Times, for a lack of sit-down interviews with journalists willing to ask tough questions.
“Wednesday’s conversation with CNN’s Erin Burnett shows why. Biden told 15 lies in 17 short minutes, almost every minute,” the editorial board wrote. . “From his startling comments about the economy to his prejudgments about Israel, Biden has created a fantasy world of a presidency that voters know is false.”

The Post then listed 15 alleged lies, starting with Biden’s claim that he created more than 15 million jobs as president.
“Biden’s favorite falsehoods are told over and over again, no matter how many fact-checkers point them out,” the editorial board wrote.
“He came into office at the tail end of a pandemic that had left a huge hole in the economy, when lockdown measures, fully supported by Democrats, forced people from their offices and were busy checking the coronavirus relief package.” He continued. “He didn’t ‘create’ anything. After the vaccine rollout, people returned to the workforce. If anything, Biden’s policies slowed the recovery. All the jobs the US economy lost to the pandemic It took until July 2022 to get it back.”
The newspaper’s editorial board accused Biden of lying, saying he lost more jobs than former President Trump created, calling it an “obvious lie.”

Trump hasn’t “lost” any jobs. He served as president during a global pandemic. And liberals took glee in subjecting people to government testing and shutting down the world during COVID-19. “They cannot dispute that the job market would have been different in 2020 under a Democratic administration,” the editorial board wrote.
Second is Biden’s claim that President Trump would make Medicare more expensive. As the Post pointed out, the presumptive Republican nominee is actually saying the opposite.
The paper also said Biden lied about billionaires’ federal tax rates, the economy, polling data, “corporate greed” that affects costs, how much Americans have to spend, taxes and even Israel. He accused her of following him. But the “lie of the night,” according to the Post, was that the president claimed that the inflation rate was 9% when he took office.
“Biden continues to pretend that America was in a terrible place when he took office, but by then the economy was already recovering — President Trump’s Warp Speed project quickly vaccinated people against the coronavirus. Inflation was just 1.4% in January 2021. Then Biden spent his first year spending like a drunken sailor, and inflation skyrocketed,” the editorial board wrote. .
