Less than a week before the U.S. stock markets <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/dow-drops-more-than-1000-points-as-global-markets-plunge-amid-recession-fears" target="_blank" rel="noopener">took another tumble</a> on Monday, President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden</a> said he wanted his accomplishments to include curing the economy.
A reporter <a href="https://x.com/RNCResearch/status/1818318455751278790" target="_blank" rel="noopener">asked</a> Biden what he wanted his &#8220;legacy&#8221; for Gen Z to entail <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/07/30/us-news/biden-says-he-and-kamala-harris-are-talking-about-vp-pick-claims-his-legacy-is-ive-cured-the-economy/?utm_campaign=nypost&amp;utm_source=twitter&amp;utm_medium=social" target="_blank" rel="noopener">during the early hours</a> of last Tuesday morning.
Biden replied, &#8220;That I’ve cured the economy — and the environment and a few other small things.&#8221;

REPORTER: &quot;What do you want your legacy for Gen Z to be?&quot;
BIDEN: &quot;That I cured the economy. And the environment. And a few other small things.&quot;
(His &quot;legacy&quot; will be his obvious cognitive decline — which Kamala covered up. Scandal of the century!) <a href="https://t.co/SMsXKVfljw">pic.twitter.com/SMsXKVfljw</a>

The comment generated renewed attention as the Dow, S&amp;P 500, and Nasdaq indexes plummeted in what <a href="https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/stock-market-today-dow-sp500-nasdaq-live-08-05-2024" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Wall Street Journal called</a> a &#8220;global selloff&#8221; during the morning hours on Monday after stocks also <a href="https://apnews.com/article/stocks-markets-rates-yen-inflation-20ce445cdd86be98fb3682a33e88442b" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dropped last Friday</a> amid concerns about a recession.

Washington Free Beacon reporter Chuck Ross similarly <a href="https://x.com/ChuckRossDC/status/1820465861704249497" target="_blank" rel="noopener">mocked Biden, saying</a>, &#8220;Cured the economy the same way he ended cancer.&#8221;
Biden <a href="https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2019/06/12/joe-biden-cure-cancer-campaign-richmond-bolduan-sot-ath-vpx.cnn" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pledged</a> during his 2020 campaign to &#8220;cure cancer&#8221; elected. The White House has touted a <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/ostp/news-updates/2024/03/08/highlighting-a-year-of-progress-the-biden-harris-cancer-cabinet-takes-action-to-end-cancer-as-we-know-it/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">&#8220;Cancer Moonshot&#8221;</a> program but has not yet delivered on Biden&#8217;s lofty promise.
Hudson Institute Senior Fellow Rebeccah Heinrichs <a href="https://x.com/RLHeinrichs/status/1820463315849474539" target="_blank" rel="noopener">compared</a> Biden&#8217;s comment to one by his national security adviser <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-adviser-confronted-over-touting-quiet-middle-east" target="_blank" rel="noopener">declaring</a> last year the Middle East region was &#8220;quieter&#8221; than it had been in two decades — a little more than a week before Hamas launched a terrorist attack on Israel.
&#8220;It&#8217;s not just that the policy is bad, it&#8217;s that they are SO sure it&#8217;s good. Remarkable hubris,&#8221; Heinrichs said.

A couple of weeks ago, Biden ended his re-election campaign as fellow Democrats urged him to drop out after a fumbling debate performance spurred concerns about his mental capacity and electability.
Vice President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/kamala-harris" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kamala Harris</a>, whom Biden endorsed as his successor, recently clinched the Democratic Party&#8217;s presidential nomination. Some of her political foes have begun to spread the &#8220;KamalaCrash&#8221; hashtag.
In response to a clip of Biden making his comment about the economy last week, Fox News contributor Guy Benson <a href="https://x.com/guypbenson/status/1820476504377319668" target="_blank" rel="noopener">asked</a>, &#8220;Does Kamala Harris agree with Joe Biden that their policies &#8216;cured the economy&#8217;?&#8221;

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) <a href="https://x.com/TomCottonAR/status/1820453211498508431" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a post to X that Harris &#8220;must immediately—without a script—explain her economic policies.&#8221; He added, &#8220;If she can&#8217;t answer a single question, she can&#8217;t handle the job.&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
