Democrats on the congressional Joint Economic Committee released a report Thursday detailing how much more the average American family in every US state is having to spend monthly to cover the rising costs of food, shelter, energy, and other necessities under the leadership of President Donald Trump.

Yah, but Biden had the worst economy ever, and Pedonald is just trying to dig out from all the terribleness.
🙄
sure but they’re paying it to the big corps who need profits, so like, it’s all good, right?
Deploying the same methodology that Republicans used to track cost increases under former President Joe Biden, JEC Democrats found that the average US family is spending roughly $700 more per month on basic items since Trump took office in January, pledging to bring prices “way down.”

This quote has stayed with me for years now:

Your face is delicious.

If you think they can’t go any higher you’re in for a rude awakening in the next few months.
Why do you think prices can’t go any higher? They most definitely can and will in the coming months.
🙄 I live in my own basement, thanks.
