At a Georgia campaign rally with Jon Ossoff signs in the crowd, Barack Obama says prices are so high that a lot of folks can barely afford to go out to eat. He says the administration did not dispute his charge that it is directly responsible for rising prices, or deny that tariffs are adding to family costs. He also says he accused it, based on the facts, of unprecedented levels of corruption.

Of course, the real problem is, the price has gotten so high, a lot of folks can barely afford to go out to eat. So, you would think that this administration would be spending time worrying about that? But that was the interesting thing about how the administration responded to the speech I gave the other day. They did not dispute what I said about them being directly responsible for rising prices. They did not argue with that. They did not deny terrorists were contributing to higher costs for families. They didn't say anything about that. I accused this administration based on the facts that they were engaging in unprecedented levels of corruption.
