NPR's Ordonez: Inflation Number 'a Wrench' Into Biden's Economic Message, He 'Would Rather Be Talking about So Many Other Things'

On Tuesday's broadcast of CNN's "Inside Politics," NPR White House Correspondent Franco Ordoñez stated that the August Consumer Price Index (CPI) numbers are "a wrench" in President Joe Biden's plan to "turn this liability of the economy into a positive." And Biden "doesn't want the focus to be" on the August CPI number, "He would rather be talking about so many other things."
