Joe Biden scorches Republicans taking credit for Dem’s bill: Don’t get in the way of what we need to do!

Joe Biden did not pull any punches as he traveled to Cleveland to tout his economic success. He appropriately scorched the Republicans.

Joe Biden makes fun of Republican politicians taking credit for Democratic bill

President Biden claimed credit for the economic recovery. He said the Biden economic plan is working.

Biden pointed out the many parts of the American Jobs Plan that require substantial investments. He called out Republicans for having no problem passing a failed tax cut scam that helped balloon the deficit yet balk at helping middle-class and poor Americans.

Biden called out Republican hypocrisy. Remember, not one Republican voted for the American Rescue Plan yet they went home to claim the credit.

“If you are going to try to take credit for what you’ve done,” Joe Biden said sarcastically. ” Don’t get in the way of what you still need to do.”

The Washington Post reported it as follows.

President Biden claimed credit Thursday for putting a pandemic-battered U.S. economy back on track — proclaiming that “the Biden economic plan is working.”He also used a speech in Ohio to urge Congress to make “generational investments” in education and infrastructure to keep the country competitive.

“Now’s the time to build on the foundation that we’ve laid to make bold investments in our families and our communities and our nation,” Biden said at a community college in Cleveland.

His visit came at a key juncture in negotiations over his infrastructure package. Earlier Thursday, Senate Republicans put forward a counter-offer that would spend $928 billion and focus more narrowly than Biden wants on “core physical infrastructure” such as roads and bridges.
