No, he said prices would fall “soon” or “rapidly”. His day one comment was in reference to the Ukraine war. 😉
Gas and egg prices surge
- Thread starter sabula
- Start date
Sorry, I don't understand what you were trying to say other than it's too soon to judge Trump on the current economy. When will the ups and downs of the economy become Trump's responsibility?
Then maybe Trump shouldn't have said, "Day One..."
"Speaking in front of a table of packaged foods, Trump used an August press conference to draw attention to food inflation during his campaign for president. “Grocery prices have skyrocketed,” he said.
“When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on day one,” Trump continued."
I'm surprised a Republican voter didn't post this first since they were all over Biden on this topic 4 years ago. I figured they would be on top of rising gas prices.
price increases can only be applied to presidents when a democrat is in office...everyone knows that
I want to say most people blamed inflation on covid as the root cause but I may be wrong…
You, seem to have the capacity to atleast have mild consideration, fire at will. Sabula, needs a xanex.
I’d say give it a year or if things drastically change before then as a result of something major he did.
Once again, I'll repeat myself. You asked a question:
And then I answered you because there was a very simple answer. I don't even know what your latest reply (below) is supposed to mean.
You've got a bad habit of attempting to argue about something when there's nothing to argue about. It's something you should work on. Pretty cool that we've had another breakthrough for you today though
I'm always happy to help you out.
No like Vance saying the violent J6’ers wouldn’t get pardons…
If things improve before a year is over, does the credit go to Biden then?
What does it matter if things "drastically change" in a year if you're saying that all along none of his supporters ever genuinely believed he would lower the price of groceries and fuel?
Why not? He stripped many healthcare cost safety nets and the LGBTQ communitie's rights in less time than that.You didn't think the individual threads you had, pissing yourself, over thr first 72 hours of his presidency were enough?
Did you notice the guy who took costco prices showed premium is significantly lower than it was?
The guy is going to wear out a pen with all the EOs he is signing. You are going to bitch about this until you bitch about how much he has done. All and all, you just want to bitch.
And now for a live look at the OP:
If it was something Biden changed before he left office then yeah he should get credit. Although to be fair, the credit should then go to his handler and not him.
We want the credit to go to the deserving individual.
Because world markets don't move as fast as "boys have penis's and girls have vagina's"
Shout out kindergarten cop.
It was somewhat a serious question. When can we bitch when prices don’t come down? A month? A year? 4 years?
I don’t even know where you are trying to go with this.
Let’s say you get paid to work. One day for no reason your company gives you a bonus.
You never thought you would get a random bonus so are you not going to take it or be happy about it?
Is Trump only allowed to do the things we truly believe he will do while in office. Are we supposed to be upset if he does things we didn’t believe he would do?
Weird flex
Of course MAGA isn't going to bitch about egg prices. That would force them to say he's full of shit. They won't. Why did JD Vance stand in front of eggs at complain about prices? To present that this administration would keep them the same price or raise prices? No. It was to campaign that they would lower egg prices.
The fact that Trump defeated two women to win the WH might be a clue to why he was victorious.
There's probably a significant percentage of voters, in both Parties, that will never vote for a female.
Anything else I can clear up for you?
Yeah. Why is the Democratic Party so sexist? I thought they were the party that cared for everyone. We already know the republicans don’t care about women but why would the democrats hate women so much?
They don’t vote for them and they don’t care about their rights when it comes to protecting their sports. Be better democrats.
Every exit poll they interviewed said the Economy was the #1 issue. It's what the voters said, not what anyone made up
Trump told us for more than a year that HE WILL lower grocery and gas prices, and it WILL happen shortly after he is in office — and neither of those things has happened. In what universe do you think that scenario is similar to someone getting a bonus at work "for no reason."
Also: if you think my post was a "flex," you obviously don't know what a "flex" is.
Did the democratic bitching poll say everything had to be fixed in less than a week’s worth of time. FFS
Well, Trump said he would end the Ukraine-Russia war in 24 hours of taking office. So why wouldn't people assume he can bring down grocery and gas prices just as fast? Are you trying to tell us that Trump was lying about ending the war in a day, and he was lying about lowering prices???????????
Well I answered this question and then you come back with the answer below stating something completely different than what you asked in the previous comment. So of course the bonus at work “for no reason” doesn’t make sense when you completely change the scenario.
You and many others seem to have a problem holding Trump accountable.
It's baffling why so many people feel the need to defend EVERYTHING Trump. It's never his fault, he never makes mistakes, he never needs to be accountable for his actions. Is that how you parent your children, is that how you treat your friends or family members when they fvck up? If not, why on earth would you do it for a narcissistic rapist who wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire. It's mental.

Oh look — the meth using poacher who totally didn't vote for Trump has thoughts about Democrats again and wonders why Trump isn't getting enough credit.
They know exactly what they voted for and food/gas prices were just cover for their racism, hate for brown people, gays and their own dissatisfaction with how they have managed their own lives.
No, you didn't answer my question. You told us that no Trump supporters genuinely believed his claims about lowering grocery and gas prices. If what you say is true, then why would anyone care what happens with prices in the future, being as how nobody ever thought they would actually change for the better or worse?
His claims are a him problem. Not my problem. I'm going to judge his term by his own promises
The MAGA base will never be unhappy with Trump. No, it's the middle of the aisle people who held their nose and voted for Trump because they thought he would somehow lower grocery prices that will be upset.
Funny leading up the election, about all we heard from MAGAs was how grocery prices were high and it was all Biden's fault while Trump was the solution. Post election, now we hear stuff like "big deal prices are still high; you'd have to be stupid to think they would come down". Yeah pretty much.
