CNN unleashed a montage on Wednesday contrasting President Donald Trump and former President Joe Biden, showing how similar their State of the Union remarks were.
Anchor Kasie Hunt asked her panel to compare the two presidents — both plagued by a rocky economy — and their mirrored comments.
“Well, one comparison, of course, that people have made is to former President Joe Biden, right? Who, of course, spent much of his term trying to use good economic numbers to convince Americans that things were actually better than their own budgets, their own pocketbooks made them feel,” Hunt said. “We noticed last night that actually what President Trump brought to the table on some of these economic issues, let’s just say it resembled what President Biden brought to the table. We’ll show you.”
The supercut showed Biden and Trump boasting about the economy and blaming each other, making parallel points throughout their respective speeches.
“I inherited economy that was on the brink, now our economy is literally the envy of the world,” Biden said.
“A short time ago, we were a dead country. Now we are the hottest country anywhere in the world, the hottest 15 million new jobs in just three years, a record, a record unemployment at 50-year lows,” Trump said.
