No medical attention is needed.<br \/>\n&#8220;The President looks forward to spending the rest of the day with his family,&#8221; the official added.<br \/>\nFollowing his tumble, Biden bent down to greet a child who was waiting along the president\u2019s route in Rehoboth Beach and asked him what it\u2019s like to run the country.<br \/>\n&#8220;Oh it\u2019s like any other job,&#8221; Biden joked. &#8220;Some parts are hard.&#8221;<br \/>\nThe president then took a photo with the girl who said one day she planned to become president.&#8221;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-15770\" src=\"https:\/\/trendingviews.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Image-1-777x1024.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"777\" height=\"1024\" \/><br \/>\nOn the same trip in Delaware, <a href=\"https:\/\/trendingviews.com\/biden-reporter-recession\/\">Biden was seen scolding a reporter on video<\/a>.<br \/>\nA beach-strolling President Biden lashed out at a reporter, as Americans struggle to keep their heads above water amid inflation-fueled price hikes, for daring to ask about the possibility of a US recession.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nNear his vacation home in Rehoboth Beach, Del., Biden was asked on the sand about economic experts \u201csaying a recession is more likely than ever,\u201d he barked: \u201cNot! The majority of them aren\u2019t saying that. Come on, don\u2019t make things up, OK?\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cNow you sound like a Republican politician,\u201d the president griped, before realizing how he came off and insisting, \u201cI\u2019m joking. That was a joke.\u201d<br \/>\nTwo days after falling off his bike nearby, the president emerged and proceeded to call for higher taxes on the wealthy while blaming oil companies for record-high prices at the pump.<br \/>\n\u201cBut all kidding aside, no, I don\u2019t think it is [inevitable]. I was talking to [former Treasury Secretary] Larry Summers this morning and there\u2019s nothing inevitable about a recession,\u201d Biden said.<br \/>\nBide also said on the beach that he may make a decision this week on whether to ask Congress to waive the federal gas tax of 18.3 cents per gallon.<br \/>\n\u201cYes I\u2019m considering it. I hope I have a decision based on the data I\u2019m looking for by the end of the week,\u201d said the president, whose <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/06\/20\/biden-scolds-reporter-on-beach-for-asking-if-recession-is-inevitable\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">poll numbers have hit new lows<\/a> due to frustration about the highest inflation since 1981.<br \/>\nOther polls show <a href=\"https:\/\/trendingviews.com\/polls-biden-democrats-2024\/\">dozens of Democrats would rather have someone besides Joe Biden<\/a>.<br \/>\nPreviously, Biden has released millions of gallons of oil from the strategic reserve and allowed a higher proportion of ethanol in gasoline over the summer. However, neither step has arrested rising gas prices caused in part by the Russian invasion of Ukraine.<br \/>\nAccording to AAA, the nationwide average price of a gallon of regular gas stood at $4.98, down slightly from the high of $5.016 recorded June 14.<br \/>\nAfter previously citing pandemic supply chain bottlenecks, Russian President Vladimir Putin, congressional Republicans, oil companies, meat producers and trans-oceanic shipping companies, Biden sought to blame inflation on his predecessor Donald Trump, during his chat with reporters.<br \/>\n\u201cWe also can move in a direction that we can provide for tax \u2014 increasing taxes on those in the corporate area as well as individuals as it relates to [former President Donald] Trump\u2019s tax cut, which is inflationary. You know, going out and buying a yacht doesn\u2019t help the economy a whole lot,\u201d Biden said.<br \/>\nDespite the fact that annual US inflation actually dropped from 2.1% in 2017 to 1.9% in 2018, Biden blamed the December 2017 tax law for inflation. Currently, it is at 8.6%.<br \/>\n\u201cWe have a chance here to make a fundamental turn toward renewable energy, electric vehicles, and not just luxury vehicles, but across the board. And that\u2019s something we should be \u2014 my team is going to be sitting down with the CEOs of the major oil companies this week \u2026 starting an explanation of how they justify making $35 billion in the first quarter,\u201d said Biden.<br \/>\n\u201cAre you planning to sit down with oil and gas CEOs?\u201d a reporter asked.<br \/>\n\u201cNo,\u201d Biden said.<br \/>\n\u201cWhy is that, sir?\u201d they asked.<br \/>\n\u201cBecause my team is going to do that,\u201d Biden answered, despite the fact that he regularly meets with company CEOs to discuss product supply issues.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/trendingviews.com\/biden-falls\/\">President Joe Biden also recently tripped UP the stairs while boarding Air Force One.<\/a><br \/>\nBiden was telling people to act on crime and gun violence and that both parties should &#8216;step up&#8217;, President Joe Biden said that, but then he ate his own words because he actually fell UP the stairs while boarding Air Force One to fly to California.<br \/>\nPhoto: video screencap<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former President Donald Trump was speaking during the American Freedom Tour when he openly mocked President Joe Biden&#8217;s failures in the White House.
