Just remember the ones here who are complaining the most are “better and smarter” than everyone else.

Was this your opinion when Biden was in office and egg prices were high?


I blamed the higher price of eggs on the bird flu not Biden.

If Trump doesn't understand economics, why did the democrats have to release a virus, shut down businesses, and lock down everyone to destroy his economy?

Shouldn't they have been able to just point to his terrible policies?

Maybe I'm some kind of woke neo-Marxist or something and I've been lying to myself for decades, but I am of the belief that people can in fact complain about prices and also spend $12 on a movie ticket and that not be some big contradiction.

When threads like this pop up it's just acknowledging that Trump failed on his promises to fix cost of living issues.

Deflation would cause mass unemployment, and you'd cry about that too. There was nothing he could do to make you happy.


Inflation and gas prices are lower than under Biden.

Again... Trump is the one who claimed he would fix these things. Shouldn't make stupid campaign promises.

What a stupid post. The world since Covid has lost its mind and one of the ways that’s reflected is crazy price increases.

Only liberals complain about affordability. Higher prices and global instability is a small price to pay for truth socials and winning.

We were on the brink of economic crisis according to these people just 21 months ago. Now if you notice high prices you just can’t hack it.

This thread has absolutely nothing to do with Trump.

It has to do with people who spend their money on frivolous things then whine about not having enough money to pay for the necessities of life.

Naw. My grandpa was able to have a good time back in his day on a blue collar salary, so why can't I?


Because you're spending it on Tigerdroppings with a thousand dollar plus phone in hand and he wasn't?

This reply pretty much sums up why many people dislike MAGA/Repubs.

So being frugal is a MAGA thing that you dislike?
