Watch: CNN host struggles to understand that student loan forgiveness drives up inflation and hurts everyone

President Joe Biden has finally delivered on one of his campaign promises to provide $10,000 in student debt “relief” while ignoring another: making sure all his policies are paid for.

CNN’s Poppy Harlow attempted to have a discussion, one she was clearly not ready for, with John Hopkins University economic professor Marc Goldwein on the student loan decision.

Harlow asserts that inflation is so high that any new inflation would be unnoticed, while Goldwein attempts to explain to her how wrong her premise is and how this policy will have ripple effects across the American economy.
