Does Joe that started a few years back? I realize he probably hasn’t been in grocery possibly ever. But the people who do, know that isn’t a recent occurrence .

It was here long before Trump took office.

Him trying to tie it to the current 18 % higher today than three years ago is simply foolish

Inflation rest solely on Biden and his ludicrous policies

Inflation is a combination of both demand and supply. The supply was pinched by both the pandemic shutdown and the invasion of Ukraine. This is a worldwide problem. Blaming the Biden administration for the issue is mistaken at best and disingenuous at worst.

Just for those who dont' quite understand inflation and how it works.

It's not just one person points a finger across the other side and say's "it's their fault".

Simply not true.
