Biden, a Democrat who is suffering from low approval poll
numbers ahead of the November midterm elections, has sharpened
his rhetoric against Republicans in recent weeks, dismissing,
for example, former President Donald Trump's "Make America Great
Again" MAGA movement as extreme.
On Tuesday Biden will lay out his plan to fight inflation and
"contrast his approach with Congressional Republicans' ultra-MAGA
plan to raise taxes on 75 million American families and threaten
to sunset programs like Social Security, Medicare, and
Medicaid," the official said.
Last week Biden took aim at Republican U.S. Senator Rick Scott's
economic plan, saying it would raise taxes on 75 million
Americans, most of whom make less than $100,000 a year. Scott,
who said he planned to cut taxes, is leading Republican efforts
to get Republicans elected to the Senate.
