You have to look at the root of inflation. I'll tell you exactly when the very first kernel of inflation was set. And that was in April of 2020,” Cuban said. “The gas prices were $1.87. The oil companies went to Donald Trump and said, ‘We are getting crushed with gas prices at $1.87. Please go to Saudi Arabia and your friend MBS [Prime Minister of Saudi Arabia Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud], please go to Russia and your friend Vladimir Putin and ask them to reduce production.’”

“So he had a choice to make: Does he help his oil company cronies or does he help keep gas prices low?” Cuban continued. “You already know what he did. He went to support his oil company cronies, went to MBS and Putin and said, please reduce production.

That was the day inflation started. And you can track—minute by minute, hour by hour, month by month, year by year, quarter by quarter,” Cuban explained, saying that the gas prices and inflation rates only began going down when that deal ended in 2022.

Trump tried to stick to his guns and did so for two weeks, the longest in U.S history.

He should have held out since 90% of government employees are probably Dem voters anyways, most in D.C and such so there was very little risk politically.

Look, one of the key national security threats to America is your debt. I said that in 2016 and it is far worse today. You can't have it both ways. This is where Musk and some creative administrative reps can help cut it down while perhaps promoting v long duration T-Bills.

Sounds right.

These are simply the facts.

Then bill O'Reilly shut him up with the truth . Nice try though liar .
 
I'm very thankful to Cuban for what he's doing this election cycle, but the roots of the inflation spike go back far before Trump. Trump just added fuel to the fire because he wanted "his numbers" to look better. And because he's flagrantly ignorant on macroeconomics.

Here's a stellar interview with Sam Harris and Mark Cuban about Trump:

There would be more Republican govt. employees if those jobs didn`t require a high school diploma.

Not to mention the scarcity and prices of terlit paper prices during Trump along with meat prices
 
Mmm, yeah. I love gaslighting. I love being told that I was just imagining gas and goods being cheap between like late 2016 and early 2020. I was just dreaming or having a psychotic episode.
I have yet to see anyone deny that we've had a big inflationary spike.

Not sure why this would even be in question.

And it wasn’t just inflation and gas prices – Trump managed to run President Obama’s strong economy into the ground.

If given the chance, Trump will do the same with President Biden’s strong economy.

Progs knew better. Guarantees were made. Promises were made. Gifts were exchanged. Joe was supposed to cure cancer soon after his installation. The great unifier. So much more.
