6 in 10 Americans blame Trump for high prices

[1blackman1]

I thought Trump ran on lowering prices on everything starting day 1. Here we are 9 months in and prices are still high.

What policies have he and the republicans supported that lowered prices since January 20, 2025?

Congress is a semi-circle jerk. The entire country is run by the late night social media post of a sociopathic liar.

How is that number only 60?

There is nobody else to blame.

It's all on Diaper Don and his cronies.

Trump said to Beair that prices are down and grocery prices are down. Republicans are also saying that grocery prices are down because deisel prices have dropped. Anyone agree that prices are down? Is it - as Trump claims - Democrats lies that prices are not down?

Keep us updated on your crowd sourcing of information, verification of trend data, researching and critical thinking goes.

Some of us might want to try that instead of researching, reading schtuff, managing our budgets and doing our own critical thinking.

Doubtful, but hey, ya never know...

So you have no answer and just posted something asinine because you had nothing better to say. I asked about policies if any.

Would your first two questions in the OP qualify as evidence in a court case? You make unsubstantiated statements and want answers to non sequiturs? In an ironic way, that would actually qualify as a textbook definition of asinine - IMMHO.

You guys were blaming Trump for higher prices back in March, before he had a chance to do anything. And even now he's only been in office for 10 months. Inflation hasn't really changed since he took office. Please give him some time.

His two hallmark policies, high tariffs and aggressive deportation of illegal immigrants, haven't had time to work their ways through the system. On one hand, they could push up prices of tariffed goods and of labor. On the other hand, they could put the USA into recession which could cause inflation to moderate. Or maybe we'll have the best of both worlds, stagflation!

He'll be hard pressed to fuck up things worse than Biden and the Democrats did in 2021 and 2022, but he may just be up to the task. It's possible the Supreme Court will save him from himself, judging from some of the conservative justices' questions today about the tariffs.
