"$1.98 yesterday in a couple of states, you have gasoline way down." Bullshit! The lowest that could be found was a gas station in Texas @ $2.19. The national average was $2.70 per gallon.
"The price of groceries are substantially down." Bullshit! In the month of March it was up 2.41%.
"We had all eggs, and as you know the price of eggs has come down 93, 94%. Bullshit. The national average is $6.23 a dozen.
Most people aren't buying his bullshit anymore. Have you seen the protests across the country? Even the deplorables in this forum aren't here to defend this POS. When are you going to grow a backbone & condemn this motherfucker?
We'e going to be dealing with these fuckups for years to come. Stop giving this prick a forum to spread his bullshit. How about not attending any of his press conferences or his little get togethers in the oval office. Fuck this guy!
He's gotta go!

HEADLINES Friday . . .
A massive tariff [by trump] on millions of Americans’ purchases just went into effect — cue the chaos
New York CNN —
A major shipping loophole expired at one minute past midnight on Friday. The de minimis exemption, as it’s known, allowed shipments of goods worth $800 or less to come into the US duty free.
Not anymore. 
Its impending end [by trump] has rung alarm bells across social media, with a baseline tariff as high as 145% depending on the carrier set to take effect on Chinese imports, potentially more than doubling the cost for all those cheap products deal-hungry Americans scooped up.
At the amount they should sitting on Trumps lap at the private dinner!

Because of trump lower-income households will suffer the most from the end of cheap Chinese e-commerce sites. About 48% of de minimis packages shipped to the poorest zip codes in the United States, while only 22% were delivered to the richest ones, according to February research from UCLA and Yale economists.

At the heart of the issue: the sheer volume of packages. More than 80% of total US e-commerce shipments in 2022 were de minimis imports, the vast majority of which come from China, according to a congressional research report.

Goods from China and Hong Kong shipped via UPS, DHL and FedEx are subject to a baseline 145% tariff, plus any additional product-specific tariffs.
Goods shipped through USPS will be subject to a baseline 120% tariff or a flat $100 fee per postal item.
Come June 1, because of trump, the flat fee will increase to $200.

Under new trade deal, UK will get lower tariffs while US is struck with paying higher tariffs. That isn't a win for lower prices in the US. US automakers complain of paying more for tariffs despite free trade deal with Canada and Mexico. Foolish for Trump to compare US to big department store that set prices. He believes US is saving money by not buying from other countries and that higher prices produce more revenue. However he fails to understand that a successful store must buy and sell things. No one gets rich by hoarding and price gorging customers. Instead Trump tariffs make everyone worse off.

Detroit News today;
Consumer prices rose 2.3% in April from a year ago, the Labor Department said Tuesday, down from 2.4% in March and the smallest increase in more than four years. On a monthly basis, prices rose modestly, increasing 0.2% from March to April after falling 0.1% the previous month, the first drop in five years.
Grocery prices fell 0.4%, pulled down in part by a big 12.7% drop in the price of eggs. It was the biggest decline in food costs at home since September 2020.

@UNIMAN
This is kind of mind numbing dont you think? 2024 was a very high inflation year with several outliers that made our CPI higher that are not likely to keep repeating at a high intensity, thus why would you cheer a 2 percent increase year over year when we came off such a high year in 2024? Now if 2024 were a 2 percent CPI then yes a 2 CPI this year would be lock step and what the FED wants and is consistent etc.
Your guy campaigned on immediately lowering inflation and CPI costs, that was one of his largest lies and what drew in the idiot masses that somehow (laughingly) the POTUS has magic powers to destroy the inflation beast that Biden made...humor and idiocy to me but hey you guys swallowed his lies, so why are you happy about a 2 percent CPI when it should be a -2 percent year over year if your dood was making progress?
Face it, all Trump has done is use schemes and tangents to racially profile and deport, create bluster then allegedly solve bluster then claim victory. Creating chaos then quelling the chaos you make is not progress it is stupidity. It must be nice not having any accountability and blind support from those project 2025 cheerleaders, I do not consider these first few months to be progress that is quantified, explained and executed. Everything Trump does lacks follow through and traceable, tangible outcomes.
