Inflation coming out of the pandemic was global and inevitable.
Frankly , the admin managed it extremely well to have a soft landing and. No recession
How does the infrastructure and chips bill increase inflation ?

I mean the election winner wants to inflate prices with tartiffs .
So let’s not pretend it’s a driving issue for voters

Man, I disagree 1 million percent. Had there been 0 or very little inflation, I think Trump loses. I get what you are saying that most people didnt vote based on policy positions but people blame Biden/Harris that their grocery bills are higher. If there's one reason Trump won, its because of that. People are pissed. And they arent smart. They dont understand that Biden didnt cause worldwide inflation and many truly believe that Trump will somehow lower their bills in January when in fact, he is basically telling them to their face he is going to make things they buy more expensive through tariffs. There's signs in people's yards: "Harris, high prices, Trump low prices." You cant make this shit up.

If there's a #2 reason that Trump won, its the "Manosphere." All the bro podcasts. While the Dems werent paying attention, somehow there are like 20 highly viewed bro podcasts who men age 18-40 watch MUCH MORE than Fox News, CNN, MSNBC. Joe Rogan and Logan Paul are their news sources and these bro dudes love Trump. Ironically, the Dems have a media problem in reverse because they lost a generation of men to the bro podcasts.

Real men don't get caught in that web. They're getting punished. Biden declared war against the energy sector, the gas cost went up about 50% (?) and everything else exploded. The Dems attempted to fix it until it was too late.

Gas? Gas is always where its been at. Temporary spike 2 yeas ago then has been falling. Its food inflation and bro podcasts.

By “declared war “ you mean has more domestic oil production than Trump ?
When trump worked with opec to decrease production to save the domestic oil companies when demand plummeted ?!?

Buddy - take a knee .
Guess what imported oil with a tariff will do
To prices ?!?

The US currently leads the world in Crude oil production and is setting all time production records. We also lead the world in LNG production. Some war on energy........
 
It's textbook Macro Econ 101. The governments of advanced economies around the world engaged in deficit spending in attempts to stimulate their economies and keep them from sliding into depression. When things stabilized a bit around the world, there were massive imbalances in supply/ demand and to make things worse the global supply chains were severely damaged or destroyed. The US would have had inflation no matter who was in the WH.

They jerked the cost up for the consumers....then realized the toxic taxis weren't selling big. Since everything we buy requires trucks it pushed the end cost through the roof. Then they lowered the gas prices for the election period. A common political game used by both parties..
And we have enough gas, don't need to import any. Trump will screw things up as much as senile President Biden and his secret boss.
 
One of the primary drivers of the world-wide inflation was Trump’s oil deal with the Saudis and Russia. Inflation started to come down in 2022 after the oil deal expired. Corporate gouging, supply chains, pent-up demand, etc also contributed, basically that order.


You can't seriously be dumb enough to have bought the ridiculous notion that corporate price gouging was one of the main factors in inflation.

For the record, if you really do think that, the Federal Reserve says that you are wrong.
