Elizabeth Warren Claims Kamala Will Lower Grocery Prices After Inflation Skyrocketed Under Biden-Harris
Daily Wire ^ | August 22, 2024 | Leif Le Mahieu

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) claimed Thursday night that electing Vice President Kamala Harris president would lead to lower grocery prices despite the fact that inflation has skyrocketed over the last four years during the Biden-Harris administration.

Warren made the comments as she spoke during the final night of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on Thursday. Throughout her speech, she claimed that Harris would be better on economic and social issues.

“You know what I love best about Kamala Harris? Kamala Harris can’t be bought and she can’t be bossed around,” Warren claimed after walking onto the stage and breaking out into tears. “We need to make life more affordable for working people.”

Warren repeatedly attacked former President Donald Trump over his legal battles, referring to him as a “criminal” and a “felon.”

“Donald Trump, the felon, has no plans to lower costs for families. He doesn’t know how, and basically, he doesn’t really care,” she claimed. “The only bills he worries about are from his criminal defense lawyers.”

Warren claimed that Harris would take on price gouging and would “lower costs for your family” as president.

“And there it is: groceries, gas, housing, health care, taxes, abortion,” she said. “We need Kamala Harris. This election is about your family and your future.”

Inflation has consistently plagued the Biden-Harris administration, hitting 40-year highs at different points with bread, ground beef, fruits, meat, and vegetables all jumping under her watch.

Dairy products such as milk, cheese, and butter have also jumped more than 30% in price since 2020, according to Yahoo Finance. Eggs are up 54% and cereal has gone up 28% on average across the country.

Last week at a rally in North Carolina, Harris admitted that prices were higher now than they were under Trump.

“We all know that prices went up during the pandemic when the supply chains shut down and failed, but our supply chains have now improved, and prices are still too high. A loaf of bread costs 50% more today than it did before the pandemic. Ground beef is up almost 50%,” she said.

Trump reacted on Truth Social to Warren’s speech by criticizing her over her dubious claims of American Indian ancestry.

This argument is basically — things have gotten really bad over the past 4 years, so we need to keep doing the same things so that things get better.

So it will be a continuation of the Biden policy of horrible, inflationary government spending and then bullying producers and retailers to lose money by keeping prices low through threats and accusations of price gouging and profiteering. We're back to the 1930s.

If a million jobs disappeared over night by revised BLS stats, why believe that the inflation rate is falling? No economic stat released by this admin is credible.

The general public is shamefully ignorant on economic matters and will believe things like this as long as it sounds believable.

As the Good Book says: “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” - Hosea 4:6

The other problem is too many people seem to WANT to be lied to. I think that is because they would rather bask in the bliss of lies than face the sting of reality. Not a good way to go through life.

LOL, those price gouging grocery stores with an average profit margin of 1.5%, right?

She'll do it by implementing price controls - that works, right? Has always worked in the past, worked well for Nixon - and in the Soviet Union, Cuba and Venezuela all of which ended price gouging and brought grocery prices under control, right?

It worked b/c there were no groceries left to buy.
