Trump vowed to slash prices — inflation just hit highest in months

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Bidenflation was a big problem. Gas is lower now, thank goodness.

Bidenflation was lower in December 2024 then today, moron.

Lol...

Democratic Party tries to pin ‘record high’ 2025 grocery prices on Trump – but it completely backfires

The widely-mocked X post included a graph of soaring grocery prices going back to October 2019, with the major inflection point being the near the start of the Biden administration.

21.2 percent over xiden’s four years

That is an aggregate number. Trump's aggregate number in his first term approached 10%.
Are you happy with 10% inflation.

Know what stat you are quoting, dumbass.

10 percent is twice as low as the number for Xiden, so yes, I am far more happy with it.

I know what I quoted.

Another MAGA lie.

Let's compare apples to apples, YOY monthly inflation. The most common inflation number quoted. It is current inflation not aggregate inflation. The last months of Biden's Presidency inflation was about 3% by month, YOY. Trump's June inflation rate was 2.7%.
Let's see what Trump's inflation rate is the 4th quarter of this year when the effects of the tariffs kickin.

2,7 percent is lower then 3 percent, last I checked as well.

Biden was down to 2.3. Trump's over 3. Aggregate is over 10.

Yeah, Elmer, keep blabbing.

Yes it is, but not by a whole lot. That reduction is not bragging material. Plus, interest rates increased by .3% from May to June.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

No reason at all to be excited, boys and girls.

There will be no fed cut on Wednesday.

I guess that's your opinion that it's not worth bragging about, others would disagree....the FED raised it .25 percent,

Remember before XIden and the Demafacsit policies? Jan 2021 interest rates were only 2.65%. It's gonna take some time to undo the massive amount of damage done by Xiden and the Dems

Trump has not reduced the blow up. He said he would on day one

He’s doesn’t control the Fed.

He has got inflation down.

If Biden was responsible then, Trump is now.

Yes trump is responsible for 2.7 inflation and xiden is responsible for the 23 percent during his four years
