Biden was slammed for telling the reporter the economy was “strong as hell” while eating ice cream in Portland

A day after President Joe Biden was criticized by conservatives on social media for giving unsolicited dating advice to a young teenage girl in California, the President is in hot water again for claiming the “economy is strong as hell.” “.

The comment came during a call with a reporter at Baskin Robbins in Portland, Oregon, who asked the president if he was worried about US dollar strength amid rising inflation.

Holding a chocolate ice cream cone, Biden replied, “I’m not worried about the strength of the dollar. I’m worried about the rest of the world. Our economy is strong as hell.”

He added: “Inflation is global. It’s worse off than in the United States. So the problem is the lack of economic growth and sound policies in other countries, not so much in ours.”

His visit to Portland was particularly notable as Democrats are in a position to potentially lose the governor’s mansion for the first time in decades, drawing attention from the White House.

A Democrat has ruled from Mahonia Hall in Salem since the 1980s, but two Democrats in the running — Betsy Johnson and Tina Kotek — could end up splitting the vote potential, leading to Republican Christine Drazan winning, some experts say.

While the Democratic Party officially recognizes Kotek as its nominee, Johnson still has double-digit support in polls and could spoil the race.

Biden on Saturday urged voters to support Kotek.
