W.H. Economic Adviser Bernstein: I Won't Admit I Got Inflation Wrong Because 'What I Said Then Was Very Much the Case'

On Friday's "MSNBC Prime," White House Council of Economic Advisers member Jared Bernstein refused to admit he got inflation wrong the same way Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen earlier in the week admitted she got inflation wrong -- in part due to her failure to fully understand supply problems -- and argued that what he said back in 2021 "was very much the case." And "I'm not going to re-litigate who was right and who was wrong a year ago."
