The State of the Union address is the time for showing what you’ve achieved, showing unity, demonstrating the greatness that can be.
Biden made it a nasty event to attack political opponents.
Oh, and on top of that, he even managed to attack a candy bar.
Biden complains about ‘Bidenomics’ at the State of the Union

“Snickers bars! You get charged the same amount and you got about, I don’t know, about 10 percent fewer Snickers in it!”
As with so much of what Biden says you have to first try to interpret what he’s saying — “10 percent fewer Snickers” in a bar doesn’t even make sense. Or is he talking about singles or share sizes in a package, like the little ones you would hand out at Halloween? I doubt he even knows, he just spews.
Republican CNN commentator Scott Jennings called Biden out for talking about “Snickers and snack chips” before talking about the border. He also blasted Biden for undercutting Israel.

Biden is doing it to deflect from his own failures on inflation, trying to blame other people and “greedy corporations.” But the government shouldn’t even be trying to dictate prices or becoming involved like that in the free market. It’s stupid, but it’s also a dangerous path of price/product control that he’s starting to walk down and just one more leftist element that he’s embracing. He should be involved in slowing the massive spending. But he doesn’t want to do that, so he talks about this stuff, like it’s going to have any real effect on the hundreds we are paying more a month because of his inflationary price hikes in essentials.
Now, it turns out that Snickers has a thing or two to say about Biden’s comments during the SOTU about their candy. They’re busting him, alleging what he said was false.
As I suspected. The president is literally slandering a candy bar. Official statement given to me by the Mars/Snickers people. Will literally slander anything and anyone. Total hack. pic.twitter.com/6DiJ1Ld6EH

Snickers said that they had not “reduced the size of the Snickers singles or share sizes in the U.S.,” despite having to face “inflation and spikes in material costs.” (Hint: because of you, Joe Biden.) They said they were trying to absorb the extra costs as best they could and “final prices are always at the discretion of the retailer” (and not Joe Biden) but that they were trying to “minimize costs.”
So basically the company is busting Biden, saying he’s not telling the truth about their candy bar. Now, I would note that they’re talking about specific sizes here and saying in the U.S., so they may have had issues elsewhere — but that wasn’t what Biden asserted.
Jennings ripped Biden, calling it “slandering a candy bar.”

Good on the company for standing up. In the era of Biden, that’s a brave act when he seems to flout norms and have no problem attacking an American company. You can earn yourself a lot of enmity from the Biden administration when you have bravery like that, as X owner Elon Musk has found out.
Shouldn’t pick fights with candy bars that are more popular than you. https://t.co/y2N6P2KRTz

Maybe Mars should sue @JoeBiden personally, and the federal government. https://t.co/sYSNoHSKp3
