An ABC News panelist and former Democrat Senator from North Dakota Heidi Heitkamp bemoaned Americans blaming President Biden for high gas prices, saying 'the problem' was consumers 'got used to' cheap gas under Donald Trump.
However, Karl pointed out inflation started rising as soon as Biden took office.
"But we're shocked because we got used to $2 gas, and that's the problem!" she argued, as NewsBusters' Kevin Tober highlighted. "Who drove up inflation? We saw the CBO numbers this week. It was the Trump administration that overspent and drove up inflation so if inflation in prices and housing and in gas is because of deficit spending, that's Trump's fault and so the administration has not been nearly aggressive enough to explain what's actually going on," she said.
