'Bidenomics': The Revealing Joe Biden 'Cook Out' Photo Op That Could Come Back to Haunt Him

As RedState previously reported, Joe Biden was in North Carolina on Thursday to tout millions of dollars in high-speed Internet investments that he claimed will "connect 16,000 additional homes and businesses, bringing high-speed Internet all across the state of North Carolina."

As we also reported, Biden's penchant for confusion showed no signs of letting up, as evidenced when he called out for a Democratic Congresswoman whom he said he'd taken a photo with earlier but who in reality was actually in Washington, D.C. He also declared at the community center event he was speaking at that he'd created "440 new jobs in North Carolina alone just since I came into office!" which was probably about 410 more than the actual number.

Also during his trip to the Old North State, Biden and his entourage of handlers visited a Cook Out fast food restaurant (a staple in the South), which looks to be the same one they visited during an October 2020 campaign stop (seen in the above photo). During that particular stop, which took place about two weeks before the election, the deeply substantive question about what flavor of milkshake he ordered was asked by a so-called reporter because priorities and whatnot.

His answer, for anyone wondering, was "vanilla and chocolate" because apparently there must be racial pandering components even in something as simple as sweet treats.

In any event, his visit to the Cook Out on Thursday was much the same, with milkshakes ordered and photos taken.

Except one, in particular, that was shared by an aide to Biden caught the attention of local Republican leaders, who used it as the perfect opportunity to dunk on the folly of Bidenomics and what it's done to the United States over the last three years.

The photo came from North Carolina native Tori Taylor, who in September was hired as a special assistant to the president. Take note of the combo prices in the background ($6.59 and $7.69, in case they aren't visible):

The press office for state Senate Leader Phil Berger (R) saw it and compared the combo prices to what they were three months before Joe Biden was sworn into office, in a photo taken during that October 2020 visit:

Thanks to #Bidenomics, a Cook Out tray costs 28% more than it did three years ago when Biden had his previous photo op. #ncpol https://t.co/3zUsO0z5cV pic.twitter.com/Ifn7wrp4Q8

You know, politicians oftentimes use a lot of words, videos, and charts to try and get their points across to voters. But this is one case where two pictures taken a little over three years apart do all the talking, speaking volumes and saying it all about where "Bidenomics" has taken this country and where it will continue to go unless we have new leadership in the White House in 2025.
