Interesting. During the Biden administration, prices were up 9% and not a peep from you guys. Now, prices are up on some goods by half as much and the world is coming to an end. Also, you cherry-picked Target, Walmart, and Amazon because they sell mostly items that are imported. The last numbers I saw was a CPI of 2.9%.
Also, the whole idea behind tariffs is to increase the price of imports, which will induce more domestic production and jobs. The bad news is that these supply effects to lower prices require increases in plant and equipment, and that takes time. In the short run, the only thing to do is avoid imported goods when you can.
Nope I would be sad he failed at the task as the People will suffer.
2025 Thanksgiving dinner under Trump is 25% lower than 2024 Thanksgiving dinner under Biden, according to WalmartKeep enjoying turkey, gravy, mashed spuds, and jello salad all year long.
So, now, instead of 60 cents/pound, bananas are 65 cents/pound? *yawn*
Typical of the Post's garbage propaganda...
Same loaded language is on the leftist news panels such as MSNBC.
With fewer daily Epstein stories they will have time to show starving families with desperate mothers unable to afford food as they serve thin soup made from weeds and grass to the crying kids.
Yup.. the TDSer that denies being a TDSer....
Typical dpetty121263 and Miami Rebel douchebaggery on the same thread.
Fitting.
I think your duck is burning.
If democrats were in charge, all we’d be hearing is how they reduced inflation (because it wasn’t as bad as someone predicted).
Things are getting cheaper. Gas for instance. Walmart’s thanksgiving dinner is 25% less than last year under Biden.
So this is pretty much BS.
Not writing to you.
The average price for....whatever, seems to be about the same as it was last November.
Moreover, I am more than willing to eat these prices until the other side is exhausted, gives in, reduces their prices and commits to fair trade...
Or I will eat popcorn while they commit Hari Kari...
Zactly
If Murica was so unaffordable, why wouldn’t they leave....
Reagan inherited double digit inflation, unemployment, and interest rates. It took him two years to tame them….thanks to the oil price crash in the mid 80s.
Powell will be gone in May from the Fed.

Well said. I align with that. Now pray that “our” Senators will do the same!
>> “... while inflation rages across America...”
Nah, that’s wetbacks, islamonazis, and antifa raging. Not inflation.
We have had a major consolidation in the food industry in the past few years…especially in meat packing (Tyson, Cargill, JBS, Smithfield, and National Beef) and egg production (Cal-Maine and Rose Hill Farms). Less competition means no desire to reduce prices. Time to start breaking up some of these companies.
