Here's a grocery store owner on national TV saying he can no longer eat Trump's new taxes (tariffs) and will pass them on to his customers.

Biden didn't put tariffs on pretty much the entire world. Something you're getting ready to find out in your wallet.

Nor did Biden ship a bunch of our Natural Gas to foreign countries while killing wind projects. Something you'll see in your electric bill.

Regardless, prices have steadily risen since 2020. It didn’t matter who was president or who controlled congress. Prices have gone up. The old blame and defend game is alive and well.

Listen, it's our patriotic duty to make sure the wealthiest among us get to keep more of their money. If that means we have to pay more for food and other goods, so be it.

I wonder what those young folks who voted for Trump are thinking right about now.

Hell, your electric bill is going to be skyrocketing.

You can try to make it the same but it's a dumbass argument.

How many of you are keeping your receipts to compare them with future ones?

This is a good idea. I’m going to start doing this.

It’s almost like we had a global pandemic in 2020.

Yeah, Trump is really only popular with the blue haired Faux News audience.

So basically the old people who have already worked their entire lives and benefited from all the Democratic programs and safety nets are now sitting back enjoying things like Social Security and Medicare, protected by democrats, while the young people see Trump and MAGA destroying all that stuff and totally ****ing them up.

That actually makes total sense. The old MAGAs have always been selfish and they've always trashed things.

It’s just so fun because it’s a totally new Trump tax on the American people to make us suffer. It's forced on all of us by Trump and MAGA politicians (who don't have guts).

They should all list it as such on the receipts.
 
Oh. Shit.
