Promises made. Promises kept.

[Precious_b]

NaCl-y, quit derailing the thread.
It is not about Joe Biden lowering the price of groceries.

It's about....

[Precious_b]

....promises made. promise kept.

And it has been a long week of the wrongy right wingnuts acting like cats covering turds on a tin roof.

*BUT* donny FINALLY delivered one promise.
He got a law passed with the name of that deceased college student. Can't say I find most anything wrong with it. donny should treat it like he does anything DEI. Any murder should be prosecuted the same. There would be circumstances that go beyond that though.

Well, without checking out the sunday morning talking heads (hehehe, I lie. I don't watch them) it seems donny fulfilled his promise on sanctions. Though I see that he has showed that he is scared of China by just a lesser tariff than the others. But it might be scale market economics, idk.

Be glad to see this action help/contribute to his stating that this will make prices drop though haven't seen signs of it.

But i'll let the quarterlys do the talking.

[Precious_b]

Well, it's official.

Another promise broke.

Consumer Price Index just went counter to what donny promised and sailed into office on. Groceries are on the rise.

I was really hoping that he would show sympathy for his base constituent and ease their fiscal woes at the store.

I guess they are happy with his useless straw paper.

... It IS Official... Grocery prices on the rise December and
January - mostly BEFORE Trump was on... So, are you blaming
Joe Biden for that??

And NOW - as the grocery stores (show in their adverts) with
"Prices Coming Down" --- you're goona credit Trump, yes?

I will take that as official NaCl-y *WHEN* you show that they are the key part to the CPI. You fail to explain why little ol' targee hasn't floated the boat of the economy as the key leading index numbers keep tanking. *THAT'S* way off Target

Thanks for showing another promise shit canned.

Show us those grocery store ads...

[HDGristle]

He's talking about weekly sales ads. He and I get the same local circulars and "handbills"

His focus is on a select number of "targeted" price drops at Target, which is already at a premium vs local grocers and not where the bulk of groceries are sold.

It's bluster and BS

[Salty Again]

... WRONG again. .... The focus on national retailer Target
was because Target MENTIONED that it has lowered prices.

So, the grocery adverts are WHAT?? ... BS??
I see some LOWER PRICES when I shop.

Still waiting for a supportable example of those 'lower prices'....

The whole Target lowering prices is a red herring...that was back in May/Oct 2024...the obvious conclusion being Biden lowered prices...LOL.

Is this weekly ad what you're basing your lower prices on?
Please compare it to last year's same weekly ad.

Sigh....

Target's announcement of lower prices did not occur after the November election. The announcement did not occur after Trump's inauguration.

Why do you continue to deflect...is it because you are unable to produce any evidence of lower grocery prices after Trump's election or inauguration?

[HDGristle]

I see broken promises

So many off Target promises being broken.

You'd think a guy would spare making the melange one look bad but salty is on a 1 man mission to do so.
