Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) on Tuesday said President Biden’s cognitive ability is of real concern amid his struggle to tamp down 40-year-high inflation.

“Joe Biden is unwell. He’s unfit for office. He’s incoherent, incapacitated & confused,” Scott said in a statement. “The most effective thing Joe Biden can do to solve the inflation crisis he created is resign.”

“He doesn’t know where he is half the time,” Scott continued. “He’s incapable of leading and he’s incapable of carrying out his duties. Period.”

Polling suggests that Americans agree with Scott. Fifty-three percent of voters have “doubts” about Biden’s mental ability, a Harvard Caps Harris poll revealed. Sixty-two percent said Biden is not fit to be president because he is too old. Sixty-six percent of Democrats said the president is mentally fit.

Scott’s lack of confidence in Biden’s mental ability comes as inflation is likely to cost Americans an extra $5,200 per year, according to Bloomberg.

“Everyone knows it. No one is willing to say it. But we have to, for the sake of the country. Joe Biden can’t do the job,” Scott added.

Biden will deliver a speech on Tuesday that is expected to accuse Republicans of not having a plan to reduce his inflation. According to economists, Bidenflation was fueled last year by spending $1.9 trillion on a coronavirus package and $1 trillion on infrastructure.

“Republicans love to use inflation as a political talking point, but does anyone have a clue what their plan is to bring down prices?” a White House official told Reuters.

It will not be the first time Biden has blamed Republicans for challenges he created. Last month, Biden blamed Republicans for blocking his costly spending efforts.

“I mean this sincerely — name me something the national Republican Party is for,” the Associated Press reported. “It’s not my fault; blame the Republicans,” Biden has said in relation to soaring gas prices and 40-year-high inflation.

In early May, the Democrat National Committee (DNC) also blamed Republicans for Biden’s chaotic presidency. “While President Biden and Democrats work to lower costs and continue the historic economic recovery made possible by the American Rescue Plan, Republicans have done everything they can to try to stand in the way,” Jaime Harrison, chairman of the Democrat National Committee, told the New York Times.

Democrats Aim to Spend $60B More Taxpayer Dollars During 40-Year-High Inflation

Democrats on Tuesday are aiming to spend $60 billion more taxpayer dollars during 40-year-high inflation.

The Democrats’ plan to spend a massive amount of money after spending wildly in 2021. Last year’s spending included a $1.9 trillion coronavirus package and a $1 trillion infrastructure package, which many economists say fueled 40-year-high inflation in the same year.

“A few center-left economists, as well as Sen. Joe Manchin (D–W.Va.), sounded the alarm that an oversized new injection of spending would overheat a growing economy and cause inflation,” Reason reported. “They were ignored, if not mocked. As a result, almost everyone from the Fed chairman to monetary experts spent most of 2021 explaining away inflation without mention of the roles played by fiscal and monetary policies.”

Nearly one year later in May of 2022, Democrats are once again planning to spend massive sums of taxpayer dollars. Democrats look to splash nearly $40 billion dollars to protect Ukraine’s border from invasion, instead of the U.S. southern border. Democrats are additionally aiming to spend about $20 billion for more coronavirus funding. Punchbowl News reported on the details of the spending proposals in Congress:

Congress is going to move forward quickly on a nearly $40 billion aid package for Ukraine. The proposal is $6.8 billion above the White House’s $33 billion request. It provides $3.4 billion more than the Biden administration sought for military aid, plus another $3.4 billion in additional humanitarian aid. House and Senate appropriators spent the last week privately negotiating the proposal.

[…]

House Democratic leaders – including Speaker Nancy Pelosi – have pushed for nearly $20 billion for additional Covid funding, in line with what the White House said it needs. The Senate had been considering a pared-back package worth roughly $10 billion.

The spending comes before the midterms elections. Democrats are attempting to make the election about abortion. But many voters are not buying the sales pitch.

“It’s the economy and jobs,” Laura Wilson told Reuters on Monday about the precedence the economy takes over abortion. Wilson, one of 21 women the publication interviewed, slammed Biden for 40-year-high inflation that will reportedly cost American families an extra $5,200 in 2022.

“Most of the women said inflation, not abortion, was the galvanizing issue for them,” Reuters reported. “Five said they were pro-life and Republican, while 16 said they were pro-choice. Just two of the 16 said the issue was the top priority for them when voting this November.”

Polling supports Wilson’s concern. According to a CNN poll, the economy tops Americans’ greatest worry. Only two percent of Americans said Biden’s economy is “very good.” Seventy-seven percent conveyed Biden’s economy is poor, the highest mark in a decade.

Joe Biden Blames Everything but Himself for Inflation in Speech Offering No New Solutions

President Joe Biden delivered another speech at the White House about inflation on Tuesday, blaming everyone but himself for skyrocketing prices.

The president refused to take responsibility for inflation, arguing his trillions in dollars in government spending in 2021 were only trying to help people.

“I think our policies help. Not hurt,” he said to reporters when asked if he accepted responsibility for the problem.

“The vast majority of the economists think that this is going to be a real tough problem to solve, but it’s not because of spending,” he claimed.

The president spoke as gasoline and diesel prices hit new record highs in the United States.

When asked why he thought Americans continued to blame him for higher prices, Biden acknowledged the Democrat party was in power in all three branches of government but said inflation was “really complicated.”

“Right now it’s confusing. There’s a war in Ukraine and they’re scratching their head,” Biden said about the American people.

“Most people, the vast majority of Americans are hoping that their government just takes care of their problem and they don’t have to think about it in detail at the kitchen table,” he continued.

Biden said the “average person” just did not understand why inflation was happening and tried to signal he understood their concerns.

“Look I know you gotta be frustrated. I know. I can taste it,” he said.

Biden blamed Russian President Vladimir Putin, the coronavirus pandemic, and big corporations for inflation and berated “ultra MAGA” Republicans for blocking his agenda.

The president mistakenly said Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) was from Wisconsin and said the senator “has a problem” when told about Scott’s call for him to resign.

“Resign? That’s a good idea,” Biden replied sarcastically.

He also insisted inflation was his “top domestic priority.”

The president rehashed his previous attempts to address inflation and high gas prices by releasing more oil from the strategic oil reserves, shifting American energy production away from oil to green energy sources, putting price caps on insulin, and offering government subsidies to make buildings more energy-efficient.

When asked how long he expected inflation to last, Biden replied, “I’m not going to predict that.”
