00:00 Before watching the video, let me remind you that there is more content on the Hotline.
00:04 Over the past year, under the leadership of President Biden,
00:08 the U.S. economy has grown rapidly, and unemployment and inflation have also fallen.
00:12 The White House has also emphasized that all this is the effect of Biden's economy.
00:17 But now, the effect of Biden's economy seems to be starting to come to fruition.
00:21 According to the data released by the U.S. Labor and Income Administration yesterday,
00:24 the consumer price index of the CPI in March of the United States was 3.5% compared to the same period last year.
00:31 It not only exceeded the market expectations of 3.4%, but also set the highest level since September 2023.
00:37 This set of figures also shows that the U.S. inflation has exceeded market expectations for three consecutive months.
00:43 This is likely to disrupt the path of the U.S. Fed's downtrend,
00:46 and will also bring a certain impact on Biden's re-election.
00:50 After the latest CPI indicators were released,
00:52 Biden also broke the tradition of rarely commenting on the U.S. Fed's interest rate policy.
00:57 He pointed out that although the U.S. inflation is accelerating again,
01:00 he optimistically expects that the Fed will still decline this year,
01:04 but it is likely to be delayed for at least a month.
01:07 Because the economy is the core issue of this year's presidential election,
01:10 the inflation rate cannot be pushed down, which may not benefit Biden's election.
01:15 At the same time, it also provides more bullets for his opponent, former President Trump.
01:21 The U.S. consumer price index of March exceeded expectations,
01:25 indicating that the pressure on the Chinese dollar may lead to the delay in the Fed's downtrend.
01:31 Despite this, President Biden still defended his policies,
01:34 emphasizing that he implemented multiple policies after taking office,
01:37 successfully reducing the inflation rate from 9% to close to 3%,
01:42 and ridiculed his opponent, former President Trump,
01:45 who only wants to cut taxes for the rich.
01:48 We're in a situation where we're better situated than we were when we took office,
01:53 where inflation was skyrocketing, and we have a plan to deal with it.
01:57 Whereas the opposition, my opposition, talks about two things.
02:01 They just want to cut taxes for the wealthy and raise taxes on other people.
02:06 And so I think they have no plan. Our plan is one I think is still sustainable.
02:11 U.S. inflation has risen unexpectedly. Trump, who has a scissor gun, is not afraid of the weak.
02:16 He publicly criticized Biden during his first-day event yesterday,
02:19 saying he had completely lost control of inflation,
02:22 and that he was the worst president in American history.
02:26 Biden has totally lost control of inflation. It's back. It's raging back.
02:30 The number today was very high, very bad. It's actually much higher because they exclude various categories.
02:37 It's actually much higher than that. The number is out of control.
02:41 Biden has no idea what the hell he's doing.
02:43 He's the worst president in the history of our country.
