Biden said in the interview that there was no evidence that the Covid relief package helped drive up inflation and that his administration had helped drive down the national deficit.

Biden insisted that a recession was not inevitable and said that every other major industrial country in the world is experiencing high inflation.

After two years of the Pandemic, Covid deaths, school shutdowns and job losses, the mood of the American people was "really, really down" and there was a need for mental health support.

Biden blamed the current high gas prices on Russia and insisted that pushing back against Moscow was in the best interests of the U.S.

If NATO hadn't intervene, countries like Poland and the Czech Republic would be next.

Biden said he believes he has the votes to pass a smaller version of his domestic spending bill that previously failed due to opposition from fellow Democrats like Joe Manchin.
