DOOCY TIME: "So, first, following up on the physical. If this was a routine physical, why wasn't it on the schedule that you gave us last night? Why the secrecy there?"
Doocy: "Is the President going to stop saying that the Build Back Better plan does not increase the deficit one single cent we now know that's not true."
Pskai: "It is true. And I would note that several economists and experts out there" agree
Doocy: "Biden himself in 2010 called" the CBO "the gold standard for Democrats & Republicans."
Psaki: "Well, Peter, since we're all here to communicate w/the public about accurate information...They still scored it but it's undervalued by the assessment of many economists[.]"
Doocy: "The CBO's projection is that there's at least a $160 billion increase to the deficit over ten years. That is 16 trillion cents, so the president was not telling the truth.
Psaki: "Well, Peter, just to go back to the content facts here..."
Boom!
Psaki: "The last administration tried to say...the CBP was incorrect, you tweeted 'watching Mulvaney try to walk away from a CBO score & explain the budget outline is awkward & uncomfortable to watch.' So what's the difference" b/w one saying no to the CBO vs. the other?
