AUBURN, Maine (AP) — President Joe Biden used his trip to a textile plant in Maine on Friday to boast about cooling inflation and to make a crack at Republicans who have floated an impeachment inquiry into him. He told the crowd at Auburn Manufacturing Inc. that “maybe they’ll decide to impeach me because it’s coming down,” referring to the rate of inflation. Earlier this week, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy made his most direct remarks yet that GOP lawmakers could launch an impeachment inquiry into Biden over unproven claims of financial misconduct. Friday was the latest event promoting the president’s economic agenda, which the White House calls “Bidenomics.”
