Who do you think you are fooling? The folks that go to grocery stores? No amount of your propaganda will erase the memories of folks who are struggling to put food on the table due to high prices

Another false equivalence. (Inflation in one sector does not represent inflation in general.)

Call it whatever you want. Hungry folks are still hungry and tired of struggling to make ends meet. Joe’s gonna pay.

So you'll appreciate that the reason they're hungry is because of the lie of "trickle-down economics" since the time of Reagan. $10 trillion in tax cuts for the wealthy during the Trump admin NEVER trickled down, nor did any of the other tax cuts. I recall getting a few hundred and other small amounts on occasion from Republican tax cuts under several presidents since the 1980s, but never needed it. Meanwhile the money borrowed from China for those tax cuts increased into the trillions, and we're still paying that down. Investment in the economy is necessary, not tax cuts. That's what's happened in recent years, and the inflation rate in the US has dropped because of it. Republicans under the Trump admin saddled the US with over $10 trillion in debt and a massive inflation. Only insane voters assume that Trump will not bring back that same 'trickle down' theft and corruption.

Nice try. Trying to blame presidents from decades ago. Joe Biden has been the president for over three years. His excessive spending caused the inflation.

Since senile Joe has been in power the last 3 years, it’s been up to him to fix all those terrible ills you described in the propaganda above. He hasn’t. Which is a good reason for you to vote for Bobby Kennedy.

Seems you don't want to know about the statistics of dropping US inflation I provided earlier: https://saidit.net/s/news/comments/cjkt/wholesale_inflation_jumps_to_highest_level_since/15srb

I know the price I paid for gasoline when Trump left office was $2.13 per gallon. The price today is $3.10 per gallon.

That’s a 46% increase. That’s what I and the rest of Americans know about inflation.

Again (and again and again), you're comparing one number to the entire US economy. You probably know there's no comparison, but perhaps you don't care. I don't know why anyone would believe in obvious lies, but this seems to be pupular since the election of Trump.

The gasoline pump I pulled up to today had the letters “FJB” written in it with permanent marker. You could see where thy had tried to scrub it off to no avail.

I know the JB means Joe Biden. But I forgot what the F stands for 😉.

Who do you think you are fooling? Not the American people. They know if it is you or me lying. Whoever wrote FJB knows the truth.

So you're going to join the brainwashed simps who support the worst candidate in history because you see their permanent graffiti at a gas station? And you think they represent the US? You have to admit that's idiotic.
