Many Americans won't be able to afford the traditional Thanksgiving Day dinner thanks to Joe Biden and his destruction of the economy.
The Wall Street Journal editorial board torched the Biden administration and the media for telling Americans they should be thankful for "Bidenomics" when the inflation numbers tell a different story.
"The latest White House lecture is that inflation has fallen from 9.1% in June 2022 to 3.2% last month," the editorial board wrote in an article headlined, "President Biden’s Thanksgiving Dinner."
The board continued: "But disinflation—inflation rising at a slower rate—isn’t the same as deflation, which is falling prices. Thanksgiving dinner prices are rising less fast than they did in the last two years, but they’re still rising."
Many of those cost increases are affecting basic food items on the Thanksgiving table.
"The price index for poultry items that includes turkey is up nearly 30% compared to November 2020," the board wrote. "Turkeys may not be able to soar but their prices can." Prices for potatoes are up "more than 12% since Thanksgiving 2020" and rolls are up more than "27% from three years ago, while the butter to spread on them has risen 25%." Regular unleaded gasoline is about "70% more expensive than it was three years ago."
As many Americans now go hungry the Biden Crime Family will stuff their faces today.
