Jennings to Bakari Sellers While Addressing Him in Discussion of Trump ‘Lying’ About Grocery Prices: ‘Don’t Touch Me’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
>> Let me let me just just clearly state what he lied about. Just so we‘re on the same page. All right. During the campaign, during the campaign, Donald Trump said that he was going to bring prices down today. He simply said, you know what? Those prices, particularly grocery prices, are not going to come down. I don‘t know if you have children, but if you do, if your children tell you, okay, if they tell you one thing on one day and then they come back and tell you that‘s not what‘s going to happen, that is considered a lie. That‘s first. The second thing is just from a very, very 50,000 foot view. One of the things we know is Scott was actually 50% correct, and that Democrats did not do a good job in telling our story. We did not do a good job of addressing the pain that Americans felt. We we said the thing. One of the mistakes we made throughout Biden‘s campaign was saying or, excuse me, Biden‘s presidency was saying that inflation was transitory. Like those things were not accurate because there are people who were out there feeling the pain of the price of eggs, feeling the pain of the price of whiting, like my dad at piggly wiggly, those things were real. What Scott was not accurate about which kind of happens around the table sometimes. Although I know you want to be. Don‘t touch me.
I can‘t touch you.
>> All right, everybody, keep your hands to yourselves at the table.
>> All right, but one of the one of the things Scott was not accurate about, there was a reason why we have inflation in the first place. This is not Joe Biden‘s policy. Yes it is. Yes it is.
>> This is actually. Of course it is.
>> It‘s actually no, of course it‘s not. Because, you know, what do you know? What do you know?
>> Why did we put government spending? Why did you. But why did that happen?
>> But why did that happen?
>> So let‘s be honest, it was because he was paying off the green lobby that helped put him in office. No.
>> The reason it happened is we talk about the reason it happened is because the reason, the reason it happened is because we had a once in a 100 year pandemic.
>> And you know, what happened across the globe coming out of, you know, what happened across the globe. You had inflation rise across the globe. You know, who addressed that issue? Joe Biden addressed that issue. And you know who you know who is the reason why we have the inflation that we have. And one of the things that Scott was again, right about is Democrats didn‘t label it what it was. That‘s Trump.
