Prices Skyrocketing Under Trump!

[Moonglow]

There are literally dozens of other large international shipping companies that you've somehow never heard of, all competing against each other. The Transportation Secretary oversees regulations that affect ALL of those companies!

I noticed you are without any proof of yer statement.

These people don’t live in reality.

They can’t accept reality, and must conjure up a fake reality and get everyone else to buy into it.

Anyone claiming that Mayor Pete did a good job as Transportation Secretary has lost the discussion before it even started, John! He was one more failure in a Cabinet chock full of them!

Sales of newly built homes dropped in July, as price cuts and homebuilder incentives failed to lure buyers struggling with affordability.

Signed contracts for new single-family homes were at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 652,000 last month, down 8.2% from a year earlier, the U.S. Census Bureau and Department of Housing and Urban Development reported on Tuesday.

The July figure was also down 0.6% from June, although that was due to an upward revision to the June data, which grew by 29,000 from the initial estimate to a revised figure of 656,000.

She tries but it's so hard to pull off when you're shit faced! Kamala's got a little drinkie pooh problem! Sure is good that we've got a President who doesn't drink alcohol!

Trump's tender tummy probably can't handle booze.

You are clearly a beta cuck, the great inferior to Mayor Pete.

Really?

I haven't seen it. They've been very steady. 2.X percent inflation isn't skyrocketing. In fact, a candy bar in Wal Mart that was 2 dollars under Trump and Obama hit 3.50 under Biden. It's still 3.50. Sounds like the skyrocketing happened under Biden. Steady under Trump.

What do you call 9% inflation under Biden?

You do realize your OP actually talks about McDonalds CUTTING the price of their meals?

Oh look, home prices going down:

Just in Time for Spring, a Slight Decline in Home Prices

While affordability continues to plague the housing market, prices in March slipped for the first time in two years as the spring selling season got underway.

Oh look, gas prices going down:

Are Gas Prices Falling Because U.S. Oil Production Is Surging?

Gas prices are falling in 2025, but is surging U.S. oil production under Trump the reason? A closer look at supply, demand, and global forces tells a different story.

Yet ANOTHER OP FAIL.

"35,000
The unemployment rate in July was unchanged at 4.2%, but more people left the labor force, according to the report. Payrolls have now averaged just 35,000 over the last three months — the weakest pace of job growth since the onset of the pandemic in 2020."

Unemployment has not increased, but the number of new jobs has dramatically decreased.

Even McDonald's knows Americans are struggling with Trump's tariffs

But other corporations are raising prices.

BECAUSE OF trump's TARIFFS, PRICES ON AMERICAN CONSUMERS ARE GOING THROUGH THE ROOF! PLEASE, CUT INTEREST RATES NOW.

DURING THE DISASTROUS dubya ADMINISTRATION, INTEREST RATES WENT TO ZERO. WE NEED THAT NOW, UNDER THE Trump ADMINISTRATION THAT MAKES Dubya LOOK LIKE AN ECONOMIC GENIUS!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

BIGLY!!!

But Trump just fired a federal governor so he can INCREASE INTEREST RATES.

Trump says he's firing Fed Governor Lisa Cook, opening new front in fight for central bank control

President Donald Trump said Monday night that he's firing Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, an unprecedented move that would constitute a sharp escalation in his battle to exert greater control over what has long been considered an institution independent from day-to-day politics. Trump said...

[Man With A Plan]

Yeah, that's pretty much all Mayor Pete did when he was Transportation Secretary, Moonie! He sure as hell never did the job!

Biden was at 3% after the Trump-caused inflation.

Inflation is head towards 4% in September and higher in October.

And, then, there is the Epstein matter.

Epstein will get its last breath on October 21.

Yes....Real Estate will be the key value moderator this time around. It is a non-static value sink that has unlimited upside or downside potential for the Dollar Unit. Petroleum is similar but in a much less significant position.

thank you for a long, tedious cut and paste from a leftist internet tabloid.

 

[Rambunctious]

And Powell said the job market is really slowing down.

Maybe the layoffs were due to Powell firing thousands of workers working on his multi billion dollar tax paid palace....

 

[EvilCat Breath]

If the inflation goes over 6% and stays there, and it may well with no relief from tariffs, and the continue slowing of job markets, and the fascist-like tactics of deportation: that all could end up like 1934 and 1936 for the GOP.

If that happens, the mainstream will rip MAGA from butt hole to gut hole.

Now for your bad news.

U.S. inflation continued to cool in September, latest CPI data shows

Inflation in September fell to an annual rate of 2.4%, its lowest point since early 2021, as gas and energy costs continued to ease.
