Michigan Republican Congressman Tim Walberg says he felt President Biden’s speech missed the mark with the American people, especially when it comes to the economy. Walberg spoke with Michigan News Network.

“I think the American people, they’re feeling the tax of inflation,” Walberg said. “Everything costs more. I think they wanted to hear a president saying, ‘I recognize that.’ We’ve had supply chain problems, we’ve had two years of fighting COVID, but we can’t continue this way. We have to get back to what American is at its best. They didn’t hear that from the president.”

The congressman says it was an incredibly tough speech to give in light of everything going on in the world, but he expected more. Walberg says President Biden condemning Russia’s attack on Ukraine and the praise he gave the Ukrainian people was positive.
