(In case anyone wasn't getting the point in their pocketbook). Trump keeps telling his base that everything is great and prices are just a little high but coming down. He's dead wrong, but he doesn't feel any of the pain himself. I'll bet he has never bought any of these things himself & has no idea

What was it under oatmeal brains ?

Chat, is this bad?

Trump did that. Credit where credit is due.

"But Biden…"

Groceries much more than 1.8% y/y. Just the gas alone would have a bigger impact than 1.8%!

Symptoms of the Orange Plague.

You got it!

Groceries are up A LOT MORE THAN 1.8 pct. Try 10-12 pct in many cases.

They must be averaging in some very lucky locations. My electricity is up 7%. My internet connection alone is up 22% and I didn’t change anything. I think we are paying to upgrade infrastructure for big data. 🤬

Lovely- Republicans did this plus cut snap, health care, and vet support at the same time. Sheer evil

Probably reflects producers’ wholesale prices and doesn’t fully account for markups at distributors and price gouging at the local market, where I paid $7 for the tub of cottage cheese yesterday that was $4 2 months ago

This is from Sept but it shows how they consider groceries. Category Price Change Nonalc Beverages +3.8% Fruits/Vegetables +3.7% Cereals/Bakery Products +2.1% Other Food at Home +1.8% Meats, Poultry, Fish, and Eggs +0.3% Dairy and Related Products -0.7% I have not seen a decrease in dairy.

This may be an average?

Hope Dems are using this data. Price of gas and food are better bellwethers than the stock market. Supermarket checkouts and ⛽️ are reality checks.

With Diesel where it is I would expect food inflation to pick up soon, too

Time to apply more lube folks.....

Bessent preparing his “but Biden” remarks. This is all on you and the tango tyrant, buddy.

#Trumpflation

Well I certainly hope no one is going to blame Trump for this!!! Not when Biden had TOTAL control of this country just 2 years ago & Obama had his hands in this mess just 10 years ago! There is always a Democrat to blame & Trump will find one!

Happy winter.

Winter is coming.....

All self inflicted.. thanks to the moron in the White House.

Not the October surprise they were looking for 😆
