President’s “broken promise” on grocery prices

[RRsilver]

He’s only been in office 31 days. Let’s calm down.

He is the one that made the statements. He said he would bring egg prices down on day one. Something that would be impossible, so he should not have said it.

 

[RRsilver]

groceries?? who the f*** even says that word? so old fashioned.

who cares a few extra cents here or there, is worth for seeing all the fired lazy lib government "workers" tears.

let's get the panama canal back, gaza made into a riveria, zelensky out of office, a big tax break for corporations before we worry about the price of your cool ranch Doritos

I know a lot of people in the medical research field, that are neither lazy nor lib that would disagree with you. That are most likely losing their job. Cutting waste is great, I'm all for it, but you don't get there the lazy way by across-the-board cuts. You have to put in the work and find the waste.

Most people forget that the inflation started rising when Joe Biden started pushing for the Federal minimum wage to be $15

Half of the country complied and some states are paying more than that including California who is paying FAST FOOD WORKERS $20+ minimum wage (just absurd we all know they aren't worth it)

It doesn't take a superior mathematician to understand that employers having to double & triple employees' wages is a domino effect and raises prices on everything across the board

Yes, that kind of jump all at once would have a big effect. I live where AL, TN, and GA all meet. Here in the tri-state area all three states minimum wage still $7.25.
No matter who was POTUS, the supply chain was fukk, as late as Sept. 2022 there was still record numbers of supply ships stuck at sea needing to dock and get unloaded. That had a part in inflation also. Don't take this as a support for Biden, it's not, just facts.

they stole the fort Knox gold and started printing $ at instance rates!

2.2 trillion dollars is a lot of money

Yes i know Silver. Not fair to states like you guys who stood firm but still have to suffer the rising costs

Another point that should be made in regards to the connection between minimum wage increases and inflation is that most of those complaining about food costs aren't in the hole anymore than before all of this started considering they were making less money compared to now, therefore really have no argument

 

[Archie]

poor food company stock holders and CEO bonuses must have started to get quite slim

 

[fishhead]

They didn't want to protest the last 4 years

Fukkin moron

I LOVE TRUMP MORE THAN MY OWN SON

Terrific stuff

 

[fishhead]

You mean Dems didn’t care about food prices or securing the boarder and I could go on like men playing in women sports.

How can you defend that??

It's like Ball State fans stating and arguing day in and day out that they have a better football program than Ohio State.

“When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on Day One… .”

— Trump, August 2024

Trump greatest President that ever lived.

Fukk Mount Rushmore, he needs his own mountain.

 

[KingKolzig]

I like Trump too hes entertaining. But this describes him 100%

Other forms: demagogues

A demagogue is someone who becomes a leader largely because of skills as a speaker or who appeals to emotions and prejudices.

Though the Greek root for demagogue literally means "a leader of the people," the word has for centuries had a negative connotation: it actually means a leader who has manipulated the emotions and prejudices of the rabble. The reason for the negative connotation is that in ancient Athens, "the people" were considered to be an uncivilized mob. Two of the most famous historical demagogues are said to be Adolf Hitler and Josef Stalin.

 

[Brock Landers]

Trump and Musk are a couple of fucking idiots

You couldn't be more wrong.

Biden was a demagogue.

Trump is a doer. He gets things done.

I have issues with him being bullied by Fauci and the pharmaceutical companies .

when we most needed him, he let them all shut us down and try to enforce poison into our blood

he never did have the balls to fire that lil traitor.

wonder what his pension is like

I think he knows how you feel, Archie.

He was going to prosecute him after he won the election but Biden pre-emptively pardoned him.

They might be conmen and disingenuous only time will tell but they are definitely not idiots.
