they're beyond saving imho. but he's nat least partly right.

Quote:
Amazon founder and billionaire Jeff Bezos said in a tweet on Sunday that Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) had saved the Biden administration “from themselves” by blocking spending proposals that Bezos said would have further fueled inflation.

In a tweet on Sunday, Bezos said that the Biden administration “tried hard to inject even more stimulus into an already over-heated, inflationary economy and only Manchin saved them from themselves.”

“Inflation is a regressive tax that most hurts the least affluent. Misdirection doesn’t help the country,” he added.

I think Biden wanted more inflation. It's part of his plan to destroy. Manchin helped the American people but not Biden and his cohorts. Manchin slowed them down. Biden does opposite of what's good for the country.

Manchin did a solid for the country - not just the Biden Administration.

They've had a habit over the years of dragging CEO's in front of congress to showboat while blaming them for whatever bad is going on. (Like high gas prices).

Would definitely not be surprised to see some sort of congressional dog and pony prior to the election this fall...drag up somebody unpopular and then try to blame them for high prices and inflation.
