The economy always looks good when you're a politician

[smmqntt]

If the economy is so good why has my grocery bill doubled and my paycheck has not. This is inflation. Groceries are up way more than 20%. Anyone else agree?

[bobpct]

This is the financial guru who said inflation is transitory 😂

[joshborja]

Believe the propaganda, not your bank account!😂😅

[mech]

"Inflation is transitory" she said here we are 3 yrs later dealing with the same crap prices on everything not going down and if anything they are going up

[kHlaDi]

This is the same people who told us there isn’t a recession, when the economy contracted for 2 consecutive quarter back in 2022, which by definition would signal an economy recession.

[alexgoenne]

3 years ago she said in congress that the government is better at handling money than the average U.S. citizen, well…

[mikebrase]

I bought groceries yesterday cost $327. I have my receipt for the exact same items magneted to the fridge from 2020. They were $137 then for the exact same items. 🤷 Doing great.

[elickes]

Another sock puppet who dances around the question and has NO CLUE what hourly pay is like. Absolutely ridiculous.

[bradleyrauk]

Ucant believe this lady she should be jailed

[ZaShiesty]

So their goal isn’t to go back to pre inflation prices? So we are just going to keep getting screwed?

[kimconley]

LIKE JOEY, JANET DOESNT KNOW SHE’s ALIVE😂😂😂

[dannywojo]

When she breaks up with Yoda, she's mine. ❤

[joycefaish]

SHE DON'T KNOW BECAUSE SHE'S RICH AND SHE DON'T CARE AND SHE SHOULD RETIRE

[HopeJones-zmre]

They go over the question that's asked and the answers that's giving it's all fake BS

[Glaciershark]

She is unbelievable I can’t even watch this. Take a hike Lady 🤬

[LudlowKid]

This is what happens when corporations, multimillionaires and billionaires buy politicians and at a bargain price, I might add.

[WesleySnipes]

Who cares what Janet Yellen says about the economy.
Look at her results. Enough said👌🏽
TRUMP 2024🇺🇸

[bigfoot-idbv]

The real question is did Grover Cleveland’s enjoy her prune muffins.

[bradleyrauk]

Her grandchildren are probably embarrassed
