Trump says he 'loves' inflation as gas prices rise
President Donald Trump told reporters, "No, I love it. The numbers were great," when asked about the latest inflation figures. His remark came as U.S. pump prices climbed amid oil market volatility and energy executives warned prices could worsen. The comment contrasts with consumers facing higher costs for fuel, groceries, and borrowing. It matters because a president praising inflation can reshape economic perceptions and influence monetary and energy policy debates ahead of the 2024 campaign.
trump went from “biden is to blame for inflation” to “i dont care about inflation” to “i love the inflation” in like a month lol
“Obama’s to blame for Iran.” “I don’t care about Iran.” “We’re going to bomb the shit out of Iran.”
What is the strategy name for circling all the answers on a multiple choice question so you can always claim you had the right answer later?
Did you see where he told a reporter “that’s the way life goes” when asked about Knicks tix being so expensive the average American could never go?
Biden made inflation drop from 9% to 3%. Biden is bad. Ergo, inflation is good. The more the better!
"so if Biden caused the inflation, then why do you love it, Mr. President?"
I think we all knew things were going to get crazy once he could no longer blame Biden, but, true to form, he somehow manages to be even worse than expected.
He said it in the interview with Hannity, "we" are making a lot money because of the higher oil prices
What happened to "I'll fix it Day 1"?
This is his morality in a nutshell. No notes 10/10
We’re a week or two from him just straight admitting he’s intentionally manipulating gas prices
Shoot an arrow in the air. Wherever it lands, call that the target.
"Ebola is actually good," Trump, in a few months
Inflations lookin fresh and young again
Give it a week and he'll be at "That piece of fucking shit Joe Biden couldn't inflate enough!"
“No one gives a sh*t about housing.” “If [gas prices] rise, they rise.” "I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation." "I love the inflation." Donald Trump really is a man of the people, isn't he?
That he deigns to speak to us at all is a magnanimous gesture. LOL.
He's a man suffering from clinical narcissism and sociopathy. Not a victim, but a perpetrator. And he got elected twice. Even though American voters had four years to think about it in between. America has a huge problem and Trump is not the cause, he's a symptom.
He couldn't be more narcissistic if he tried!
To me, those statements say, The Dems take the Senate at the Mid-terms. Trump"s words are a Dem election asset at this point
He is a man above the people. The oppressor.
Sadly, he is a man that too many of the people who support him wish they could be.
Remember Trump’s Knicks ticket prices comment: that’s life.
The campaign ad industry thanks you for your continued contributions.
The amazing part is that some people still act shocked when voters get angry about prices. Most people live in the real world, not in press conferences.
Bear in mind, Republicans lost their minds when Joe Biden ate an ice cream cone or went to the beach to read.
Yes, if by people you mean the ultra wealthy and tyrants.
He crashed the economy, prolonged a war of choice and says “I love the inflation” and it’ll come down as soon as the war is over. Yet another reason why America #CantAffordTrump!
How many times must Dumbold Trump tell Americans he doesn’t care about our financial struggles to get it? Now he says “I love the inflation.” Trump has no clue what typical families face financially every day. But worse, he does not care. Republicans neither. #CantAffordTrump
😡😡😡 He doesn’t care and has no idea what the majority of Americans are going through!
No one in their right mind trusts a word out of his mouth. #CantAffordTrump or his Republicans.
Or, and hear me out here, he could have just not started the fucking war in the first place
Solidarity greetings from EU/Germany. Same here, we can‘t afford Merz. Together we stand fighting modern fascism!
Reminds how he said Covid would just disappear in 2 weeks. Magical thinking is cute in toddlers but not in people running our government.
Inflation means the value of his buildings went up. It’s all about his greed.
He had lived a pampered life and has no idea what inflation
Here’s Mike Johnson’s attempt to clean up Trump’s “I love the inflation” mess: “What he was saying is: It’s going to be great to have that number and compare it to what comes next, when we get these situations resolved, that’ll be a fun thing to consider.” Johnson spreads bullshit poorly but often.
He’s such a pathetic weenie
It's always amazing to me that the same folks that support him because he "says what he means" burn an awful lot of calories explaining "what he really meant was..."
mike Johnson loves the taste of poop, he loves eating shit.
Goodness gracious. If that isn't the most flaccid, weenie-mouthed, and limply lame line of bs I've heard since Hector was a pup.
Mike Johnson needs to realize that his days as speaker are numbered. After the Mid-Terms his own caucus are not going to elect him minority leader and he’s going to go back to being an insignificant back bencher again.
Seriously, Lil Johnson is so FOS.
Spreads that shit on the wonder bread super thick, then gulps down the entire sandwich in one big bite.
OMG he needs to STFU already with the gaslighting. He could power all of DC with that sh!t.
trump likes it and johnson thinks it's 'fun'
Johnson's church doesn't recognize the 9th Commandment.
OMG shit this poor wouldn’t even make my plants grow.
Trump said what he said. We don't need Mike Johnson to interpret. Trump does not care about any of us.
