ThisWeekABC Pete doesn't know how to tell the truth. He's a slick talking bullsh*tter like Obama, but people have caught on. Dimon, Summers, and other economic professionals are saying a recession is here and going to get worse before getting better. I'd listen to them.

ThisWeekABC Pete and George. Two little stooges who can’t.

ThisWeekABC FJB

ThisWeekABC We are crumbling Pete!

ThisWeekABC This administration is so competent - they can't even read numbers! 🤦🏼‍♀️ recession

ThisWeekABC Too much 'wanking' affects the brain...

ThisWeekABC Print another trillion right Pete?

ThisWeekABC This small naive knucklehead should resign…

ThisWeekABC Japan is Korea's main enemy. Don't force Korea to become friends with Japan. Japan, which has looted and raped Korea for 40 years, is also refusing to admit it.

ThisWeekABC Pete you are so intelligent, well spoken, and cool and calm. Just a class man

ThisWeekABC

ThisWeekABC They're the reason we're heading into a recession.

ThisWeekABC Ummmm, we’re already in a recession.

ThisWeekABC

We are in a recession!

And you don’t push back? What happened to the “news” in ABC news?

The members of the current US Government never want to talk about the consequences of the disastrous economic policies taken by them!!! For the current USA Government, the fault of the current economic crisis in their country is always someone else's and never theirs!!!

Turn the oil pipeline back on and resume domestic production and drilling again without red tape.🧐

Small town mayor has no idea what he’s talking about. It’s all just reading the bullet points.

Knows nothing about Transportation....and now he is an Economist...what a loser!

WorldNews Hmm please explain this further

We are already in one

They may have been focused on the economy but they truly have failed!

🥰

This guy is so useless.

This double talk really means hold on to your hats we’re coming into a Recession. Plain and simple , another catastrophe created by Joe Biden

So what he’s trying to say is that a recession is now inevitability certain

That’s actually what Biden said, but go ahead and misquote him.

WorldNews Great. Look up 'glittering generalities.' 😮

Geniuses at ABC didn’t have the heart to tell Butedgeedge we’ve been in a recession for many months

Screw the American economy, our democracy is at stake. Buttigieg for President!

Lower taxes, cut regulations, and leave us alone. That’s how you improve the economy, Pete…

1st of all, why are you asking the Transportation Secretary about the economic condition of the economy. Maybe this reporter should work on something else. Maybe puppies and kittens...

Pete is a liar!!

WorldNews We’re already in one. Why are y’all trying to gaslight the population? We’re not stupid, we shop, buy gas, work and my money doesn’t go nearly as far as it did two years ago, a year ago, a month ago.🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

Hahaha! Yeah right. That's hilarious!

Good grief. Someone please stop putting these clowns in charge.

In 1982, unemployment was over 9.7%, prime rate 16.5% with morgage rates at 19%. And for the past 40 years republicans have been running a scam promoting the policies that got us into that mess. In the process, Reagan triple the fed deficit & 7 folded the federal debt

WorldNews New speak.

That's funny!

WorldNews He was told what to say. After all, he wasn’t chosen for Secretary of Transportation for his ability. He only checked a box.

All this cover from the media. Prostitutes.

Out of touch with reality!

Snake oil salesman, spewing the party line. That is all.

News flash. We’re in a recession. Just keep raising the interest rates and printing money for ukraine. While Americans struggle. With spending down and continuing to go down those businesses impacted will begin laying ppl off. Already seeing it with low merit increases

The supply chain got yanked! Two quarters of contraction is a recession

🤮🤮🤮

We are being force fed GARBAGE!

Lying comes so easy

Total and complete BS.

Democrats wouldn't know how to fix a economy. They keep comparing thier economy to the pandemic. There is no way but up. They love red tape & stop people from being successful. Pure communism

We are in a recession no matter how many times Biden attempts to change the definition.

My man’s running around talking about racist bridges, while we struggle to afford groceries. These people are NOT serious about helping us

Pete tells it like it is!

Petey again, eh? 🙄

We have been in a recession for a while. Putting lipstick on a pig and calling the pig a dog does not make the pig a dog. It is still a pig.

We are in a recession.

Recession is already here. It’s getting worse. How’s his maternity leave going?

We could be in the middle of a depression and this administration would still say the economy is “strong.”
