President Biden on Friday expressed confidence that policies he claimed are favored by Republicans will drive voters to cast their ballots for Democrats in next month's midterm elections.

During a press conference at the White House, Biden lambasted what he called Republican "Mega-MAGA trickle-down" policies, arguing they'll turn off voters.

"[Republicans] want to double down on Trump tax cuts for the wealthy … send jobs overseas … [and] they want to abolish" a 15% corporate minimum tax rate signed into law by Biden in August, he told reporters. "If Republicans get their way, the deficit is going to soar. I have to admit, every once in a while, they surprise me."

Biden then added, "That's why I think we're going to do just fine."
