Why is everything better now that Trump is in charge

[IM2]

My wife and I are retired living the expatriate life less than 2 years away from having a second passport so we can travel without the stigma of being Americans.

You are stuck in the US with your whole life tied to a politician.

Congrats Norm. That's awesome.

GDP 3.8% inflation slowing, gas is low, border closed, almost 3 million illegal invaders deported or self deported, interest rates cut, taxes cut, all new jobs are private sector jobs real jobs that create wealth, Iran problem solved, no more gender absurdity harming children, military is stronger, 12 trillion invested in manufacturing, energy policies that make sense, so why are democrats losing their minds?

• Yes, food prices are slowly falling or at least rising much more slowly, with overall grocery inflation cooling significantly from its peak, though some items like beef remain high while dairy, eggs, and some produce are seeing declines due to oversupply and easing pressures, with forecasts suggesting a continued slowdown into 2026.
  Key Trends & Reasons:
  • Slowing Overall Inflation: The annual rate of food price increases has dropped substantially from highs in 2022, with some reports showing month-over-month decreases and annual rates around 1.7-2.0% by late 2025, down from peaks.
  • Dairy & Produce Relief: Increased milk supply led to lower butter and cheese prices, while citrus and some fruits/veggies also saw price drops.

They believe everything in the OP, and much more. Nothing to the contrary can be said, demonstrated, illustrated, or otherwise proven to change their minds.

Your mind is pretty well set.

I know enough to be retired with a pension and more than enough in on our 401ks to take advantage of a nice CBI program and have enough left over to life comfortably for the rest of our days while traveling to our heart’s content.

You keep on buying those stupidly priced coffee drinks and die a pauper.

Which means you must be right because you're smarter, better, more successful and superior.

I grow weary of Fallacies from the Feeble-Minded. Good bye

Food price data was not collected and used in the latest inflation report.

Inflation is not slowing.

wow ! just wow ! no need to have an honest fact based discussion with this guy .. waste of time ..

The extent to which a Trump slurpporter will lie to themselves is incredible.

 

[Norm Paperman]

wow ! just wow ! no need to have an honest fact based discussion with this guy .. waste of time ..

The latest inflation report was missing 80% of the data normally used.

wow ! just wow ! no need to have an honest fact based discussion with this guy .. waste of time ..

If you think posting some grok AI stuff to lie about things is an honest an fact base discussion.....

A rather ironic post based on the previous post between you and I.

Wrong. And you know that what was meant is BULLSHIT. The consensus coming from the majority of America is that Trump is ******* up this country. So, try not to use a report that does not have all the information to make claims. Doing that shows desperation.

Consensus? now that is BS
Wage are up more than inflation. Starting next year everyone gets a pay increase because Trumps tax cuts mean less withholding and a big refund. What will the consensus be then.
Biden stol buying power from everyones wages and Trump is increasing it
Know what better under Trump
AFFORDABILITY

 

[Norm Paperman]

Trumps tax cuts mean less withholding and a big refund.

If you are getting a big refund you are hurting your finances.

A big refund just means the US government has held your money for a year without giving you any interest at all on it

Correction a larger refund

 

[Mr Natural]

Correction a larger refund

The goal should be to break even at tax time.

You don't owe them they don't owe you.
