President Biden was blasted after his comments attacking Republicans following the September inflation report on Thursday.

Biden appeared in Los Angeles to deliver remarks on the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and its impact on voters. His speech came after a new Consumer Price Index report revealed that inflation rose 8.2% in September compared with the same time last year, higher than initial predictions indicated.

Though Biden was more optimistic about the news, he also took the time to accuse Republicans of intending to make inflation worse should they retake Congress in 2022.

“Today’s reports, though, show some progress. Overall, inflation was 2% over the last three months. That’s down from 11% over the prior three months. That’s progress, but a lot of it has resulted from getting the cost of living at the gas pump down, now even in California, by more than $1 nationally,” Biden said.

He added, “If Republicans win, inflation is going to get worse. It’s that simple.”

Twitter users attacked Biden’s comments for ignoring the impact of higher than expected inflation rates as well as attempting to shift blame to Republicans.

“He has no idea what’s happening with inflation today. They just hand him something to say and he says it,” The Spectator’s contributing editor Stephen Miller tweeted.
