Showing Original Post only (View all)Do MAGAts who actually BUY GROCERIES believe Kim Jong Don when he says grocery prices have "come down?" [View all]
Trump Promised Lower Food Prices On Day 1, 99 Days Later Has Delivered The OppositeTrump's been consistent in blaming Biden for E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G.
But when he says that grocery prices have "come down," are the MAGAts actually believing him while paying for said groceries?
Groceries have come down, he said in an Oval Office photo opportunity on Tuesday, and then focused on eggs in particular. The cost of eggs have come down like 93, 94% since we took office.
We bought groceries last Monday and paid five bucks for a dozen eggs. That implies that Trump brought the price down from $10 a dozen.
Who's believing this crap?

OP
Maybe I am missing it but why is it when MSM reports Trump saying prices are down they don't cut to a survey...

I no longer have faith that many of my fellow Americans can tell truth from the most obvious lies.

Initially they will make that blame, but as things don't get any better after a while they will have no choice

That's the core: faith based. But non-core magas get enlightened like everyone else by economic 2x4 to the face. nt
