He didn't fail to stop it, he succeeded in worsening it.

Failed to stop?
Is the writer fuckin stupid?
He CAUSED most of the current US inflation that the previous admin had made progress on getting under control.
Can we at least be accurate with the fucking news.
He didn't stop inflation because he didn't try to stop inflation. He continues to actively sabotage the economy so he and his minions can profit.
So basically they will get fu*ked only because of gas price?
Nothing about foreign policy, nothing about Trump sucking toes of bibi & pootin, nothing about US citizen getting shot & murdered by ICE? Nothing about massive corruption?
And... Ah yeah I forgot, what about the Epstrump files?
Failed to stop? He purposefully exacerbated it for the benefit of himself & the rest of Epstein class.
He didn't fail to stop shit. He exacerbated the problem intentionally to enrich himself and his cronies.
Yes, I'm sure this time all the transphobic pedoloving christofascist racists straight outta 1865 will see the error in their ways and actually vote in the interests of non-billionaire grifters.
It’s expected a lot of them are going to not vote this election. The frustration in that camp is pretty high right now.
If you've already voted and you know someone who's too lazy or distracted, give them your Sample Ballot as a cheat sheet
If only they could see some other way to change the world to make their frustration less frustrating. Oh, if only.
Republicans deserve to be destroyed as a party to NEVER RETURN.
Yup, and even if there is a MASSIVE blue wave, the orange pedo and all his propaganda outlets will spend the next 2 years blaming EVERYTHING on Dems...and 2028 will be 2024 all over agin
There will be a massive blue wave, but Republicans aren't simply letting themselves be Constitutionally and democratically removed from power. They're not leaving or losing, they know this is their last stand and will do anything to keep power. They've said they will cheat, not accept results, and essentially coup the government when they lose.
I just saw a bunch of YouTube vids about they've already filed motions to toss out ballots in seeing states, and now people in TXs are saying their votes were flipped on machines similar to TN.
The next 2 weeks are gonna be vicious
Yep, and they're already deploying ICE to polling places. I just saw an example in Florida, where they "had to pull someone over and it happened to be a few feet away from a polling place" and they "happened to stay there for a long time".
Buckle up, stock up on necessary items for food, water, and safety, and VOTE.
Also please do some phone banks to get others to vote too. Environmental Voter Project is a great organization that I've done for the last few weeks.
It's not hard at all, each session is only an hour, and you make calls at your own pace. It feels great to actually get people out to vote, because instead of just having a 1x impact by casting your own vote, you could have a 100x impact if you encourage 100 people to vote (which isn't hard, you can hit 100 in like 3 one hour sessions). This legitimately makes a difference in elections, take a look at their results.
Yeah, I think this will be the outcome as well, though I don’t think the blue wave will be as big as many seem to believe.
Biden already stopped inflation - Trump only needed to leave things alone long enough for the numbers to stabilize.
This is new inflation directly caused by Trump
You don't understand he made billions, so everything is fine. Now vote for him again, he will make more billions.
He isn't "struggling to deliver on his campaign promise to bring down costs." He has no intention of doing that. He never had any intention of doing that.
And by "golden age" he means "gilded age." There's a big difference.
The Republicans have been the party of inflation since the Nixon Shock. If the money in your pocket is dissolving, then you're encouraged to invest in businesses to save for retirement. Then once you're dependent on those investments, you'll defend them.
They want every American drowning in debt. They want us living paycheck to paycheck. They want us to fail and then call us lazy, irresponsible, and financially illiterate. The purpose of a system is what it does.
No the system can certainly behave in a way that was not its intended purpose.
Ostensibly capitalism is about trade and labor and resource distribution.
De facto it is a vehicle for wealth concentration and creating an advanced feudal state.
Trump failed to stop inflation.
Trump actively fueled inflation.
Despite his lies during the campaign, everything he did made inflation much worse than if he had done nothing at all.
As long as we all vote them out…please don’t listen to what the media says. Yes I agree things look good but we seen this 2024 and 2016.
I keep seeing these articles and can't help but think that they said this about Republicans a lot right before they corrupted elections and won anyway.
No. They won't. I mean, I'd like to set aside the cynicism, but I find myself unable.
Title makes it sound like the republicans aren't part of the problem from the start. Trump is the GOP and GOP is trump. He's just the latest republican mascot to sit on the throne.

Failed to stop inflation? That’s like claiming nestle failed to ensure the supply of and rights to water for local townships they’re actively stealing water from. It’s like claiming ai tech bros failed to reign in energy sector orgs and corps from raising prices and gouging customers in order to get payoffs and pass on costs to individuals rather than their buddies in big business.
He purposefully increased inflation through intentional economic harm to play a play he has all his life - make shit drastically worse and harmful to large swaths of people and accept and force bribes in order to extort big and small players alike with promises of giving them exceptions to that harm.
"failed to fix" is the same thing as "caused"? weird language. I'm quite sure the tarrifs did nothing but punish citizens for not being strong enough to stand up to this or any other asshole.
Oh yeah, because fucking INFLATION of all things is what I was worried about.
The billionaires will not broadcast our dissent. Big fucking surprise.
What's interesting to me is that I'm absolutely sure Donald believes everything is a-okay. He is chronically online and consumes nothing but algorithmically-weighted content and Fox News, and someone who does that is living in a different reality than the one that actually exists around them.
That said, let's all hope the two dozen or so DSA's get elected. That's the only shred of change we're going to get at the national level, because centrists' record demonstrates that they're a-okay with price gouging and inflation too.
If you didn't already
go vote
It was never his intention or desire to stop inflation. He's been the one deliberately causing it because he doesn't give af about anyone else paying the price.
