CNN whips out ‘Republicans pounce’ cliché to describe why inflation crisis is nightmare for Biden
Fox News
Liberal CNN dusted off the cliché "Republicans pounce" to describe why the ongoing inflation crisis is a disaster for President Biden on Thursday, even using the often-mocked phrase as a subhead in a story billed as analysis.
Collinson explained why the cost of living increase, which is the highest in 30 years, is a "nightmare" for Biden but expressed dismay that Republicans aren’t factoring in "mitigating factors" such as a pandemic-induced spike in demand and COVID-19 shutdowns resulting in a supply crunch.
"None of these mitigating factors are stopping Republicans from exploiting the painful cost-of-living increases and prices at the pumps to slam ‘Bidenflation’ and to argue that the President's ambitious political program is squandering past economic gains," Collinson wrote in the section titled, "Republicans Pounce."
