Republican lawmakers are lambasting President Biden's economic policies, known as 'Bidenomics', following his 'victory lap' in North Carolina amidst a 3.4% rise in costs since last year. Senator Wicker, Senator Ted Budd, and Senate Leader McConnell criticized the policies for failing working families and contributing to shrinking paychecks, with McConnell noting only 14% of Americans believe they are being helped. The White House dodged questions after Biden appeared surprised by a $6 smoothie in Pennsylvania, an incident GOP members are using to highlight the administration's disconnect with the economic realities of skyrocketing prices.
Joe Biden shouldn't act surprised that a smoothie costs $6 when prices for everything have skyrocketed since he took office. He's done nothing but fan the flames of inflation, and Americans continue to suffer the consequences. https://t.co/glDv1gjSOX
It’s simple, Mr. President. #Bidenomics is NOT working. https://t.co/BkOSpPn0xe
Joe Biden only has himself to blame for these skyrocketing prices. "White House dodges question about Biden's surprise over $6 smoothie in Pennsylvania: 'Joking around'" https://t.co/w5yFxeR6qX

White House dodges question after Biden looked surprised that a smoothie costs $6 in Pennsylvania - 'not out of touch and was joking around' https://t.co/jx6rmZJXPl https://t.co/xKwEiCtshW
The Biden Administration still thinks it can convince working families to ignore their shrinking paychecks and believe that Bidenomics is working. But just 14% of Americans think @POTUS' policies are actually helping them. Truth is, Bidenomics is a dud.
President Biden is in North Carolina today to do a Bidenomics victory lap. Only problem is that Bidenomics is utterly failed working families across our state.
Costs have only ever risen under this president - up 3.4% since last year. Is Bidenomics working? No. https://t.co/rQNrxluUxh
