Biden Told Such A Big Lie On Jimmy Kimmel, Even CNN Had To Fact Check Him

President Joe Biden falsely argued that the US has the "fastest-growing economy in the world" throughout a spot on Jimmy Kimmel Live! - as the nation proceeds to face inflation not witnessed in decades and a possible economic disaster.

The assertion came throughout the president's in-person appearance on the late-night talk show Wednesday - his first ever - where he touched on several hot-button matters like abortion, climate change and inflation.

Nevertheless, Biden bizarrely started the interview by praising supposed success the US economy has seen under his administration - making the glaringly false allegation in the process.

It comes as the average price for a gallon of gas in America topped $5 for the first time ever this week, and as the Labor Department showed, inflation has hit a 41-year high of 8.6 percent - with many now warning of a possible recession.

"Look, here's where we are," Biden, 79, stated throughout a roughly 20-minute Q&A. "We have the fastest-growing economy in the world." Receiving uproarious applause, he repeated twice more: "The world. The world."

The president went on to mention numbers indicating recent increases in job growth - despite a cooling job market that has spurred economists and big banks such as Goldman Sachs to warn of a probable economic downturn in the following months.

"We have 8.6 million new jobs just since I got into office, unemployment rates down to 3.6 percent, we've reduced the deficit last year by $320 billion," Biden announced. "This year, [we're] gonna reduce it by $1.7 trillion."

He then declared: "So, we're the strongest economy."

The declaration from the democrat - who has been widely condemned for the increasing inflation rates, as well as an endless baby formula shortage - was demonstrably false.

The US economy did see growth in 2021, figures from the UNs International Monetary Fund show, by a modest 5.7 percent - a figure beaten by more than 50 other nations that displayed faster growth that year.

Nations to surpass the US ranged from larger, wealthier countries like China, Italy and France, which boasted GDP growth rates of 8.1 percent, 6.6 percent, and 7 percent, respectively.

The UK further enjoyed an economic increase more pronounced than the US as countries continue to recover from losses seen throughout the pandemic by a respectable 7.2 percent.

Nonetheless, many were much poorer, developing countries, including Kenya, which witnessed an increase of 7.2 percent; Ethiopia, 6.3 percent; and India, an even more marked 8.9 percent.

Some nations, in the meantime, blew America completely out of the water, like Northern-African Nation Libya, which saw growth of 177.3 percent, and South America's Guyana, which boasted an also-impressive 19.9 percent surge.
