What do you think the word "transitory" means? Smartass. -------------- Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said she regrets describing inflation in 2021 as “transitory,” the term several Federal Reserve and Biden administration officials used to describe the pandemic-induced price surges they initially thought would be temporary. “I regret saying it was transitory. It has come down. But I think transitory means a few weeks or months to most people,” Yellen said during an interview with FOX Business Network’s Edward Lawrence on Monday. ------------ thehill.com/business/4529787-yellen-regrets-saying-inflation-transitory/

transitory
adjective
1) not lasting, enduring, permanent, or eternal. 2) lasting only a short time; brief; short-lived; temporary.
Antonyms: permanent
I suppose we can argue about which definition she was using and how much time is considered "a short time, brief, or short-lived" when it comes to inflation, but I hope you are rational enough to agree it's hardly permanent.

"Transitory" was a prediction, not a lie. Like "Mexico will pay for it" or "We'll replace Obamacare with something terrific".

Perhaps I should just take your word for it. After all, you seem to know quite a bit about shoving things up your ass.

"Transitory" was a prediction, not a lie. Like "Mexico will pay for it" or "We'll replace Obamacare with something terrific". It was a lie to try to soften the impression of impact of the coming inflation tidal wave. Sort of like the lies about Bidens competency over the last 4 years.

So you'll agree that "Mexico will pay for it" or "We'll replace Obamacare with something terrific" were lies in order to get votes.

So if it goes up it’s the Presidents fault , if it goes down the President has nothing to do with it. That’s a damned if you do damned if you don’t If I ever seen one. The president is not responsible for raising interest rates. The president is responsible for signing bills into law. Those bills/laws can often cause inflation such as the American Recover Act and Cares Act. And no... it was not transitory as you were told. I wonder if that could be considered a lie? BINGO!

What do you think the word "transitory" means? It means “don’t worry about it”, according to the talking points that were being passed around when it was the new buzzword.
