To all those who voted for Trump because he promised he’d food prices down, here’s an excerpt from today’s interview with TIME—which I found THOROUGHLY ENJOYABLE:
He was also asked about grocery prices, something Trump's cited as key to his victory over Vice President Kamala Harris. Inflation spiked to a peak of more than 9% during the Biden-Harris administration but has since cooled to 2.7% as of November.
Trump vowed to lower prices down throughout his campaign, even displaying food items like bacon or eggs during one of his events. But in his sit-down with Time, Trump brushed off whether his presidency would be considered a "failure" if he failed to do so.
"I don't think so. Look, they got them up. I'd like to bring them down," Trump said. "It's hard to bring things down once they're up. You know, it's very hard. But I think that they will."
