Trump’s Super PAC launches site to show soaring grocery bills under Bidenomics

Donald Trump’s official Super PAC has launched a new website dubbed “Biden-Mart” that lets users compare Trump-era grocery prices to current costs under Joe Biden’s administration.

Biden-Mart.com, published by the Make America Great Again Inc. PAC, features an interactive grocery checklist that encourages users to “check off the items…to compile your weekly grocery list and see how much more expensive your bill has become under Joe Biden.”

There are over two dozen common food staples to choose from, including coffee, dairy products and a variety of different fruits and vegetables, the Daily Mail earlier reported.

The Post clicked off a grocery list of items to see the impact Bidenomics has had over the last four years.

A two-pound bag of apples, two pounds of ground beef, seven lemons, one gallon of milk and one pound of sugar and coffee each totaled $30.07 — a whopping 57.11% increase from the $19.14 it cost during the Trump administration

Biden-Mart uses data from the United States Department of Agriculture data to compare the prices from January 2021 — when Trump left office — with January 2024.

“Putting food on the table has become harder than ever thanks to ‘Bidenomics,'” the website touts. “As costs for everyday items continue to rise, American families are struggling more and more to foot the bill.”

Overall, grocery prices have surged 25% in the past four years, outpacing inflation’s 19% rise over the same time period, The Washington Post reported least month.

The latest Consumer Price Index reading rose a higher-than-expected 3.2% in February, following a stiff 3.1% advance in January.

Even as inflation ran rampant last year, Biden spun the numbers as good news for his Bidenomics agenda that has consistently claimed to “reduce the [government’s] deficit” despite Treasury Department data showing the red ink has doubled in 2023, from about $1 trillion to $2 trillion.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics is set to release March’s inflation figures on April 10.

Consumer prices have not fallen year-over-year since President Joe Biden’s term began in January 2021.

The closest the economy has gotten to a yearly decrease since Biden took office was in July 2022, when the inflation rate remain “unchanged,” at a sky-high 8.5%.

Trump — who clinched the 2024 Republican nomination for president — has cited inflation and the larger US economy as one of the top issues voters are considering going into the November election.

“People are going through hell,” he said when speaking on consumer prices during an interview with CNBC earlier this month.

“The middle class in our country has been routed and the middle class largely built our country and they have been treated very, very badly with policy.”

Although intellectually honest, it makes the 'tards not want to vote for a guy you associate negative things with.

If the last thing they hear is bad, they think he's bad even if he's done nothing but good (not saying that's the situation). Most of the American voting block on either side is one heat wave from retarded.

That's a smart tactic.

The realistic side is that the massive stimulus's he fully supported, along with supporting closing the US down for covid (and attacked Desantis for re opening Florida too soon) greatly contributed. There's a lag delay to these things. The massive spending he supported wasn't going to impact overnight--a large percent of Biden era inflation is Trump doing. Likewise, the raised interest rates under Biden will hurt the economy, but there is also a lag effect. So if Trump wins, the economy will likely suffer from interest rates raised under Biden.

I don’t give a fuck.  Remember when Bush took the blame for all the excesses of the housing bubble to include the fallout from Slick Willie’s Community Reinvestment Act that forced banks to loan money to unqualified buyers?      

I remember.  Let FJB own this since the inflation blew up on his watch.

The price of food is not included with the inflation numbers were are given, so this is good for Trump to highlight the real inflation that has happened under FJB. The small percent inflation numbers we are given is straight up lying to the public with how misleading it is.

During Bush and Obama, I was always assured that it doesn’t react that fast and gas prices were the fault of the previous president, not the current one.  Even though other world events cause changes within days.  And they definitely have nothing to do with the “we’re gonna end oil” policies of biden.

This 3% is only for last quarter of 2023 or 1st Q 2024.

On top of the 21% cumulative inflation from his first 3 years.

My utilities bill alone has doubled since the so called adults were placed into oiffice.

It's definitely been memory holed that he was opposed to the massive bipartisan covid bailout bill that was passed through Congress with a veto proof majority, by people with a certain agenda at least.

https://www.npr.org/2020/12/27/950133658/trump-signs-covid-19-relief-package-after-threatening-to-derail-it

Or that he shut down the government twice to try to get them to spend less.

2018 total spending was 4.99 T
2019 total spending was 5.13 T
2020 was 7.72 T an increase of 2.59T
2021 (Biden) was 7.62 - 2.49 T over pre-covid
2022 was 6.48 T another 1.35 T over pre-covid
2023 was 6.13 T another 1T over pre-covid.

Sure Trump spent money fighting a disease no one knew anything about and tried to keep the economy open...what is Biden's excuse for continuing to spend at record levels?  Trump spent 2.59T and got a vaccine out (like it or not) that was to be the end of panic, lockdowns, and everything else.  Biden has since spent another 4.84 T above the 2019 levels, almost double what Trump spent trying to beat covid.  But you orange man bad people still try to blame it all on Trump.
