Whoever is running Joe Biden’s social media account is an idiot.
The account has been pretty much tone deaf throughout this presidency, but they really laid an egg this week.
Biden was touting tax credits for purchasing electric vehicles, only there was one problem.
Wrong Ride
When Joe Biden toured the auto manufacturing plant, he was in several electric cars.
But, this is the one that the social media guru put in the picture touting the tax break…
On my watch, the great American road trip is going to be fully electrified.
And now, through a tax credit, you can get up to $7,500 on a new electric vehicle. pic.twitter.com/n3iZ9etL4A

The problem… the vehicle in that picture is worth $110,000, which few can actually afford.
And, by the way, that particular vehicle is not eligible for the tax break because it costs more than $80,000.
This is a point that was not missed on Twitter…
The GMC Hummer EV Pickup Edition 1 POTUS is driving here costs >$110k and isn't eligible for the tax credit https://t.co/hA268G10KH

The GMC Hummer EV does not currently qualify for a $7,500 EV tax credit per @IRSnews https://t.co/gDMQENtASW (SUVs/trucks must be priced $80,000) https://t.co/X9ri2kuyCa

Just another boneheaded message from a boneheaded administration.
