Now if Democrats were politically savvy, which they aren't, and could actually understand the average American, they'd be hammering this point about Republicans not bringing down prices until the next century.

    Doesn’t really matter. Republican voters won’t hear it from any of their info sources.

    The sad fact that we let a propoganda outlet fester for 3 decades without so much as even calling it out.

    Where’ve you been? It’s been called out since its inception, and ramping up in intensity as time goes on and it gets worse.

    It literally just makes them watch harder because “if they hate it so much it must be true!”

    As a matter of fact, grocery store prices will likely become far worse because of his tariffs and deportation policies.

    It’s always the opposite with this cotton-headed ninny-muggins.

    If only everyone had some warning that he lies a lot!

    Even if he weren't evil and a liar, it's proven he's an imbecile of the lowest order only a tier above his supporters.

    I guarantee that the only promises Trump is going to keep are the ones that will reduce consumer projections, increase profits for corporations, and make the rich richer.

    So, he's not even in office and already squirming out of his promise...

    Did not even wait for his throne to be able to uphold he tried something.

    Perhaps he'll say he had a concept of a plan but it was bad.

    My advice: Buy large bags of beans and rice, you’re probably going to need them.

    Oh look, the well-known con artist that you voted for in hopes that he would not con you has conned you! What a surprise!

    Now we're all stuck with this scumbag. I hope you're all happy.

    You counteract inflation by making sure people’s wages also change to reflect the new value of the dollar. Which they haven’t.

    Prices don’t come down unless you enter a period of deflation. And if you thought inflation sucked, deflation sucks even more. Especially for a nation of people who hold a lot of debt. As the value of current grows, so does the value of your debt. If you have debt, your debt burden increases.

    so he's not president yet and already backing out of his election pledges... we can only hope it'll piss off his electorate, but it won't, they'll just get angrier at opponents

    I love that we treat politics as team sports. Even the use of the word opponent implies you aren't working toward common goals.

    He didn't so anything of the sort. Does no one read the articles?

    And the article reads like a Trump endorsement. Those quotes will sound great to your average American without context.
