Experts say high food prices are here to stay. Here’s why.

[ThisIsMe]

Trump promised to (DOGE) balance the budget, and reduce taxes.

And with both houses of congress controlled by republicans, I wonder what his excuse will be?

No idea, he might do it. Wait and see

 

[struth]

Before Biden took over, Trump was running up $3 trillion deficits

Biden never came near those levels.

Actually the deficit was only that high one year, so not sure why yoir used the plural

And that was to combat Covid. Since then xiden has had over trillion deficits, including one two trillion every year. Much much higher then trump prior to dealing with the Chinese virus.

Had trump not done that, imagine how many more people xiden and harris would of killed with their record Covid deaths??

 

[ThisIsMe]

Yeah, racism, sexism, and transphobia.

Provide proof those were the reasons.....please. you've made the allegations, now I want you to show us the evidence.

...

It is my contention, based on exit polls, that Dotard would not have been re-elected if not for Biden/Harris being successfully, and erroneously, blamed for inflation. Especially food inflation.

....

The Democrats lost because Old Joe is going senile and demonstrated that oh-so-painfully during the debate.

The Democrats lost because of inflation spread over the past four years.

The Democrats lost because they allowed an invasion of an additional 10,000,000 to 20,000,000 Illegals then lied about it.

The Democrats lost because they leaned too heavily upon the Minority Vote while writing-off the White Majority Vote.

The Democrats lost because sizable numbers of Blacks and Hispanics and other Minorities finally saw through their bull$hit.

The Democrats lost because they insisted upon shoving DEI (including males in womens' bathrooms and sports) at us.

The Democrats lost because their Lawfare had gotten out of hand and had become painfully incompetent and biased.

The Democrats lost by elevating highly-educated elites as superior to the Common Man and thereby lost his allegiance.

The Democrats lost through their constant lies and misinformation and failures to face Reality and failure to 'read the room'.

The Democrats lost because they gave us another Saigon Embassy Roof moment with the botched Afghanistan withdrawal.

The Democrats lost because they refused to stand-up to Militant Islam and because they hamstrung the Jews of Israel.

The Democrats lost because they anointed a Candidate rather than choosing one through an honest and open convention.

The Democrats lost because she Launched and Finished at her Black Sorority and didn't reach out enough to Whites.

The Democrats lost the White House, Senate and The House because enough Americans had become disgusted with them.

The sooner you characters have a Come-to-Jesus Moment and realize that much of the above is true...

The sooner you will be able to purge the hyper-Leftists from your midst, take your heads out of your a$$e$, and compete again.

Trump promised that he would make the cost of food return to pre-covid levels "very fast"

Swing voters voted for lower prices.

Yup, this Fake Trump Promise is in this thread.
Keep updating ALL:

Promises Kept

Promises Broken

A LIST of Promises.....all in this Video.

"Before I even arrive at the Oval Office, shortly after we win the presidency," Trump said. "I will have the horrible war between Russia and Ukraine settled." Here is a collection of all his promises, LIES, and Propaganda pieces said DIRECTLY from the mouth of trump. It would be nice if he...

Yeah, racism, sexism, and transphobia.

Racism and sexism is the only reason the Word Salad Idiot became VP in the first place, pimp. The racist, sexist Obama - who makes decisions for The Demented One - said NO WHITEYS and NO MEN.

Inflation has steadily cooled over the past two years, despite seeing a slight stall in October and November. Prices for items such as gasoline, used cars and energy have all declined accordingly. However, food prices continue to outpace inflation, increasing by 28% since 2019.

More than 85% of consumers report feeling frustrated with rising grocery prices, and over a third say they have resorted to buying fewer items to save money, according to a 2024 survey by RR Donnelley.

However, experts say high food prices are here to stay.

“Once food price goes up, it tends to stay up,” said Claudia Sahm, a chief economist at New Century Advisors. “The inflation may come back down, so you don’t see the big price increases. But outside of widespread depression, we don’t tend to see prices falling across the board.”

Experts are also skeptical of whether policy intervention can affect food prices.

“There’s really nothing government policymakers could do about this,” said Jason Miller, a professor of supply chain management at Michigan State University.

It is my contention, based on exit polls, that Dotard would not have been re-elected if not for Biden/Harris being successfully, and erroneously, blamed for inflation. Especially food inflation.

Should history hold true, and these economic experts prove correct, I can't help wondering how many millions of sincere but misinformed voters will regret their vote.

Predictions for inflation under Donald Trump's policies in 2025 vary among experts:

- Elevated Inflation: Trump's proposed tariffs, particularly on Chinese imports (up to 60%), and broader trade restrictions are expected to raise prices for imported goods, contributing to higher inflation. Some forecasts suggest inflation could reach 2.8% by the end of 2025, exceeding the Federal Reserve's 2% target[1][2][4].

- Moderate Inflation Decline: Other analysts argue that inflation will continue to decline due to reduced money supply and slowing consumption. Economist Steve Hanke predicts inflation could fall below the Fed's target despite Trump's policies[3].

The overall impact depends on the scale of tariff implementation and fiscal measures.

"Experts".

lol

Let's get rid of the lying libtards before we figure out who's an "expert".

Oh, that is stho sexthist. What a fagulous term.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

You saw the campaign. You and others made racist and sexist remarks about Harris. I don't have anything to prove to you.

There were also comments that mentioned she was an idiot. And useless. And unlikable.

 

[ThisIsMe]

What racist remarks? What sexist remarks? What she did, she did to herself. Did she not have an affair with a man who was 30 years her senior? Did he not help get her into positions that helped jump start her political career?

Also, please spare me the concern about remarks people make about harris, you all say that and much worse about trump, and pretty much any other republican politician. Should we ca you racist for that?

 

[Kondor3]

There was no need to make racist remarks about Harris.

Given that she Launched, then later Crashed, in the bosom of her Black Sorority Sisters and played the Race Card...

For all that, she lost because the Democrats performance and policies over the past four years have hurt America...

Racism had far less to do with it than you-and-yours would like us all to believe...

Trump is an asshole. His deeds show us that.

How many affairs did trump have? Stormy was more than 30 years younger than him.

Harris was already a DA when she met Brown. Brown was separated from his wife for a decade when they got together. Brown helped Nancy Pelosi and Diane Feinstein too. The double standard you use is the hallmark of racism.

The people of California voted for Harris. Twice for AG, once for senator. Willie Brown could not make that happen, so again we see racism here and you are too dumb to see just how much your racism makes you say and believe these things.

Why do whites pretend you are not a race? And that your racism IS the ultimate race card? Besides Trump is the one who played the race card.

Racism and sexism are why Trump is in office. Republicans ran Congress for the last 2 years and did nothing. Biden's performance was better than trumps.
