Biden’s midterm self-edit: Less talk about inflation woes

FILE - President Joe Biden speaks at a Democratic National Committee event at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center, Thursday, Sept. 8, 2022, in Oxon Hill, Md. In recent speeches, President Biden has stopped talking so much about inflation worries. Biden is attempting to shift the spotlight to his legislative wins, the loss of abortion protections and the threats that he says are posed to democracy by the many Republican leaders still under the sway of former President Donald Trump.
