Joe Biden’s SOTU was a 67-minute rant against Donald Trump and Republicans. He never addressed his plan for America, and didn’t honestly review the state of the union. The highlights came when he veered away from the teleprompter, like when he tried to say “Laken Riley” and came up with “Lincoln Riley.” Threatening the Supreme Court Justices was another moment.
Then he decided to slander the Snickers candy bar, claiming the company was cheating us by shrinking the size of the bar.
The Candy Bar Slur
“In fact, the snack companies think you won’t notice if they change the size of the bag and put a hell of a lot fewer — same size bag — put fewer chips in it. No, I’m not joking. It’s called ‘shrinkflation,’” Biden said. “Pass Bobby Casey’s bill and stop this. I really mean it.”
“You probably all saw that commercial on Snickers bars. And you get … charged the same amount, and you got about, I don’t know, 10 percent fewer Snickers in it,” he added.
Biden has previously brought up the size of a Snickers bar and the idea of shrinkflation. He said during a campaign event in Las Vegas last month: “They haven’t raised the price of a Snickers bars. They just took 10 percent of it out … it’s a lot smaller. So that’s how they’re making more money.”
Mars is a big Biden supporter. That’s what you get from supporting Biden.

As I suspected. The president is literally slandering a candy bar. Official statement given to me by the Mars/Snickers people. Will literally slander anything and anyone. Total hack. pic.twitter.com/6DiJ1Ld6EH

Biden’s inflation policies at work and he blames candy bars. What a Schiffhead.
Loved the point that the reward for supporting Biden is to be attacked.
The combined inflation since Biden took.
Based on Biden inflation, the compounded inflation number is 18%.
That means the a reduction of 15% in size would be justified by Biden’s destruction of the economy (he complained about an imaginary 10% cut) r an increased price of 18%.
Biden and his ilk want to run our economy? Not just no, but **** no!
Please supply your own word for ****. Mine is ‘forever’ no.

Algebra by yours truly.
I don’t know about Snickers but I know there is a lot of shrinkage out there and I’m not talking about coming out of the pool. Remember when you bought a half gallon of ice cream or a 6 ounce can of tuna?
Can’t afford the ice cream (cost or calories) but your point is well taken.
