House Speaker Nancy Pelosi pointed her finger at West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin during a recent interview with ABC George Stephanopoulos. Manchin, who has famously stopped Democrats from passing the Build Back Better agenda, previously blamed rising rates of inflation on Democrat-pushed policies.

According to The Daily Wire:

Host George Stephanopoulos noted that inflation, which is at its highest levels in 40 years, is costing the average American family approximately $275 a month.

Stephanopoulos then played a clip of Manchin saying:

This is not a time to be throwing more fuel on the fire. We have an inflate — we have inflation and we have, basically, an economy that’s on fire. You don’t throw more fuel on the fire that is already on fire causing the problems that we have. So we’ve got to get our house in order.

Pelosi gave a long-winded response to Manchin’s remarks before claiming, “it’s not right — with all the respect in the world for my friend, Joe Manchin — it’s not right to say what we’re doing is contributing to the inflation because it is exactly the opposite.”
