WATCH: Bumbling Biden Battles The Teleprompter, Shouts Out Inaccurate Claims During ‘Bidenomics’ Speech
President Joe Biden visited West Columbia, South Carolina today and gave a speech to tout the state of the American economy. Like many a Biden speech, it was full of its share of gaffes and inaccurate claims. While nothing was on the level of the pure unadulterated gibberish he shouted back in 2020 when Biden shouted that he would “lead an effective strategic to mobilize trunalimunumaprzure“, here are a few moments captured by the RNC Research Twitter page.
In South Carolina, Biden boasted about how much money his administration was investing in New York’s infrastructure. During his speech, he declared that “you’ll be able to go through [the Hudson Tunnel] 100 mph instead of 30 mph” thanks to his rebuilding efforts.

Biden also admitted that he did not know what a supply chain was six years ago and said anyone who would have mentioned to term to him would have been met with a blank stare.

There was an incident of Biden becoming incoherent and stumbling over a word before he somewhat managed to correct himself. Biden said in that segment “the lifting more power components like -like it is going to be taken to be made in redwood mineral.” Biden then realized that he had combined three words into one (as well as altered the final word) and corrected by saying “excuse me, redwood materials.”

Biden also repeated his debunked claim over the deficit by breaking out “his creepy whisper” voice. “I cut the deficit [by] $1.7 trillion in two years.” He added when applause broke out that “no one has ever done that.”

He's lying — again. Moody's Analytics says "the actions of the [Biden] administration and Congress have undoubtedly resulted in higher deficits, not smaller ones." pic.twitter.com/HfWfWX1CTr

CNN of all places had debunked Biden’s claim about reducing the deficit back in 2022. They wrote “the deficit has been bigger under the Biden administration than the nonpartisan federal Congressional Budget Office had projected it would be if the Biden-era federal government stuck with the laws that were in effect when Trump left office in early 2021.” In effect, Biden has made the deficit larger than predicted when Trump left office.
CNN also cited Dan White, a senior director at Moody’s Analytics, who stated “The actions of the administration and Congress have undoubtedly resulted in higher deficits, not smaller ones…It is encouraging that the administration has proposed some initiatives to bring down the deficit, but so far none of those initiatives has been seriously considered.”
CNN also cited Marc Goldwein, the senior vice president at the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, who said that Biden’s “almost bizarro world” claims were so untrue that they were a reversal of reality. Goldwein further said that the deficit would have fallen much lower if “President Biden come to office and not done anything.” Goldwein opined that Biden up to that point had “passed no pieces of legislation to directly reduce deficits.”
