Food inflation hit its highest rate since 1977 last month, having risen to 18.2% in the year to Februaury 2023.

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) saw this jump from 16.8% in January, with the increase driven by price movements such as the rise in cost of vegetables last month.

You fake Republican morons pretending that inflation is solely Trump’s fault are worse than democrats.

When you are parroting the same talking points as MSNBC, you may want to reconsider your position.

Says the guy that took what I posted to mean I blame only Trump for inflation. I'm not the moron in this exchange.

Now tell me - do you hold Trump accountable for starting the inflationary cycle with his $5T Covid shitshow spending? Or do you make the MSNBC-style argument that it's not both Trump and Biden, but only Biden?

Explain how Trump dealing with Covid 3 YEARS AGO is making our eggs $7 a dozen in 2023. I can't wait to hear this shite.

Our food inflation is this high or even higher. Our government is just better at cooking the numbers.

I think it's entirely possible that all those COVID bucks are just washing through the system now. But, if you have specific info on that, I'd love to know. I doubt we even feel Biden's retarded spending bill from the end of last year for a year or two.

You shouldn't be so enthusiastic about your own ignorance.

Did I argue that Trump's Covid spending spree is why eggs are $7 per dozen in 2023? Did you miss the part where I pointed out that Biden has picked up Trump's pro-inflation baton? And inflation didn't start this month, did it?

Inflation started its upward trend in the first half of 2021, and was fueled by Trump's Covid spending and restrictions on output that he helped fund.

They are working hard to address the issue by sending their money and weapons to Zelinsky.

Was Trump's second stimulus actually needed or could we have survived without it?

Was Biden's $1.8 trillion stimulus needed?

Truth be told, we could have survived easily without both. They were helicopter money. They both were the start of the inflationary cycle.

Weren't the Covid spending bills passed by a veto proof majority in Congress?

Allowing the country to shut down killing production while pumping stimulus money into the economy.

Over supply of money plus product supply shortages and labor shortages equals inflation.

Does this mean that inflation only rises and hits records when a certain political mindset points it out? If it was a never-Trumper inflation would be lower?

With the support of Trump, I think so. He showed some great leadership rallying the Covidians in congress. It's unfortunate he was on the wrong side then.
