>> Things are getting cheaper. Gas for instance.

When gas goes down, everything goes down! Because shipping.

Drill baby drill! Drill here, drill now, pay less.

How come 5% under Trump and Bush was bad but 8% or more under 0bama and Biden was good?

according to an analysis by .......DataWeave...

Pfft.

Lying about mass deportations is the biggest problem of all, because without them the squeeze of low wages and high housing costs will inevitably continue.

LOL 🤣

Apparently

The media can say what they wanted in 2022. The voters didn’t buy it and punished the Biden administration in 2024. The voters could easily do the same in 2026 with the current administration if they believe prices are higher than promised during campaign. Voters decide not the media.

Gasoline is down....great for consumers, but goods travel by diesel-powered trucks.

How have diesel prices moved ?

Short term Anti American BS from a free traitor is no way to start the day.

[central_va]

[chiller]

[central_va]

Free Traitors will rot in hell.

Bananas are up 8.6%, mostly because of tariffs, as almost none are produced domestically.

I am a supporter of tariffs on principle, but this right here is retarded — and demonstrates a serious ignorance on the part of the people leading this administration’s tariff policy.

9% + 9% + 3% +3% = 24%. How much have wages increased? And that is the govt rigged numbers. And the fed says good enough for govt work and cut rates with the stock market at an all time high. What’s another 12% or more over 4 years. Layoffs reached a 22 year high yesterday. Agree that Trump does not control the economic cycle. But people live with the economic reality not in a fantasy plan and that’s what controls the midterms and elections.

Trump has fixed most of the problems that caused the inflation, but the problems that inflation caused are going to be sticking around. The cost of labor has increased since 2020. First for Covid, then for inflation related to Covid. Horrible governing and laws passed during Biden's takeover added even more inflation. The reaction to the supply chain disaster was another disaster. WE STILL HAVE TO PAY FOR ALL THIS $HIT! And then there's the National Debt.

Why aren’t all the Smurf mayors and governors following Mandamni’s lead and opening free food supermarkets so their hungry voters can get something to eat? Don’t want those voter starving to death like the Afrikan kids.

I read that this Thanksgiving dinner had fewer items than last year and used more generic Wal-mart brand items to keep costs down. It’s not a good one-to-one comparison.

[MayflowerMadam]

“It’s not a good one-to-one comparison.”

Right. It’s only a good and fair comparison when it’s “apples-to-apples. It’s shameful that our side resorted to trickery; that’s the job of the RATs.
