You mean lower than when Biden was in office.

I haven't seen a single thing go up yet at the grocery store. I am sure it is coming but everything I bought on Monday was the same price.

You paid that for 4 years of Biden and apparently you made it.

I guess you missed the thread yesterday showing beef and coffee are up $2.50 a pound since last year. A lot of stuff like steak and vegetables are up too. I don't care that much, I'm going to keep buying what i buy, but no point in pretend things aren't up.

Jones Act waiver today should produce some good news to post.

Trump is fighting to reduce oil spike or Trump is killing American shipping industry....you decide.

But are they up overall from the previous admin or are they up from lows that we were currently enjoying until recently?

Anecdotally, the things I usually buy are cheaper for me today than they were prior to the current admin. Not all items, but on average.

Maybe they should have consider their income and budget before having three kids.

Like I said, Biden sucked and Kamala would have sucked. But one of the things Trump ran on was bringing prices/grocery prices down, not having them skyrocket.

That's not even me talking about the price of building materials that have gone crazy because of tariffs that only get pushed off on the homeowner.

I don't really believe any of these politicians when they make their promises but I'll recognize when Trump has done some good and also recognize where he has failed. Doesn't seem like people are willing to admit he's ever disappointed on his promises.

A couple items "skyrocketing" is a little disingenuous when things like eggs have had big drops.

Sure, just like there are people that would piss and moan if he cured cancer. Pay them no mind.

In April 2024, gas was over $3.50 a gallon.

I guess when you had your "Free Palestine" sign in your hand you didn't notice.

That's fair enough. I think overall though, if you took what's up and what's down or just look at your average grocery bill, things are up.

Of course there are. And I do pay them no mind.

Nice melt/cope. Trump is doing the very same things MAGA told us Kamala would do: wars, high gasoline, skyrocketing groceries, and now the DOW and S&P are falling as well

With gas and diesel prices rising so quickly, expect your trip to the grocery store to be quite a shocker.

EVERYTHING is brought to us by a truck.

Yes, I was saying this when the average price of gas was $5. But I was also told the president had no control over this.

Gas prices and inflation are still less than when that drunkard was in office.


Some of you have really short memories. But in your case, you are just a dishonest piece of shite.

Trump has lost any semblance of control over this situation that he ever had. The timing of the end of all this shite is almost entirely out of his control.
