With inflation at a 40-year-high because of President Biden’s runaway spending early in his administration, the liberal cast of The View came out Thursday with the singular mission of gaslighting their viewers on the reason why they’re struggling to make ends meet. With them blaming everything from Congress to the pandemic to climate change, co-host Whoopi Goldberg demanded to know “what do you want him to do?!” and unironically told viewers “don't let people BS you.”

“Inflation rates just hit a 40-year high, and there are calls coming from both sides of the aisle and the media for the Biden administration to figure out ways to fix it,” Goldberg announced at the top of the show. “So, here's my question: what do you want him to do that he's not doing?” And according to her, “I don’t know very many folks who could juggle this many balls in the air at the same time.”

Goldberg lamented Biden has had to contend with “COVID and then COVID-19, and then COVID-21, and then COVID’s COVID's cousin, you know, and there's that, and there's the wars, and there’s inflation going up, which is happening all over the world, it's not just us.”

She then blamed the pain on Republicans who she falsely accused of raising taxes when they actually passed a tax cut. “I have been saying cut the taxes that you raised six years ago so people can get a little bit more money back in their pocket before everything went to hell in a handbasket,” she huffed.
