President Joe Biden offered up another helping of word salad Wednesday during his remarks on the implementation of a jaw-droppingly huge $1.2 trillion infrastructure spending bill passed by Congress with the help of Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell back in 2021, patting himself on the back for a check well signed before waxing philosophic about how the world isn't like a pair of pants.
And no, that wasn't a typo. Here's what he said, translation not included:
"I’ve traveled over 140 countries around the world. I’ll paraphrase the phrase of my old neighborhood: The rest of the countries, the world is not a patch in our jeans, if we do what we wanna do, we need to do," Biden rambled.

If you're scratching your head and going, "Huh?" you're definitely not the only one.

I’m surprised he didn’t work in his uncle’s award and oil cancer.

Biden also suggested during his remarks that the "recession" - you know, the one his administration has continued to deny? That one - “got so bad two years ago” because America couldn’t get semiconductors.

While it's true that semiconductors were hard to come by, that’s largely because the supply chain was disrupted thanks to leftist COVID edicts that threw a massive monkey wrench in both the national and global economies. But not having semiconductors for new vehicles still doesn’t explain why the price of butter and eggs has tripled, gas hit $7 a gallon in come cities, and parents spent months desperately hunting grocery store shelves for baby formula.
That would be because a bloated, power-hungry government full of self-serving politicians and unelected bureaucrats thought they could turn the country’s entire economy off and back on like a spigot.
Or just rip it off like a…patch in your jeans…or…something.
