Are talking about this lie? “When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on day one,” Trump continued. “We will drill, baby, drill,” he said, referring to increasing domestic oil production. “That’s going to bring down prices of everything.”
(And $1B to his bank accounts to drill anywhere oil corp wants.National parks to wildlife reserve included🤬)
(Economists generally prefer to see prices increase modestly across an economy rather than fall, a scenario known as deflation, because it can cause people to put off purchases. And often, when prices for goods fall significantly, it’s because more people are unemployed and the economy is in a downturn.)
Another instigated tariff war will again increase imports taxes and consumer will pick up the cost.
Increase minimum wage? I didn’t hear him talk about that. He hired non-union workers and illegal immigrates that got paid less as recently as 1st term😂. Some small businesses won’t be able to afford $10 minimum and/or jobs will be p/t no benefits.
