VIDEO: Axios CEO Inhales Inflation Hopium for Democrat Comeback

VIDEO

Remember when the liberals were rejoicing in early Spring when they were oh so sure that President Trump's tariffs would cause high inflation, tank the economy, and bring a downfall of the Trumpocalypse? Well, much to their great disappointment, that Hopium scenario did not play out especially as inflation continued to fall. However, they haven't given up. Jim VandeHei, the CEO of Axios, has inhaled another strong dose of Hopium and is now predicting a big rise in inflation resulting in the downfall of MAGA. And when this latest round of Hopium does not pan out, I am sure VandeHei and his fellow liberals will be back in a few months with a new, improved dose of Hopium.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Vandehei cited the falling price of Chipotle stock as proof of inflation fears. Um, no. Chipotle stock has fallen for other reasons such as I used to go to Chipotle a lot but haven't gone back there in years.

Axios, Mediaite, Politico, MSLSD, ABC-CBS-NBC-CNN, NY Times, Washington Post, AP, UPI, Reuters etc

They are all stenographers for the democRATS, DemoKKKrats, and the Deep State.

The loooove reporting any negative about the US. If they cannot find enough negative, they will just make shhhhtuff up (the classic anonymous sources).

Chipotle is going down the tubes for reasons of lower quality and smaller, more expensive proportions, some actually laughable. I’ve been reading and seeing pics on Reddit.

Yep, all true. Disgusting maggots.

Sorry, the comparison is unfair to maggots.

If Trump’s EO prohibiting mail in ballots while requiring in person paper ballots withstands the legal challenges sure to come, it will doom the Democrat party more than anything that has happened so far.

Yes, either revenue directly or revenue growth is down in very many of the fast food chains.

My own view is that part of the reason is they are all over exposed, and more people than before want the local and unique over the same ole same ole.
