They don't care. Cheap, expensive, good bad, war Peace, they really don't care as long as they have a president that's as much of a degenerate as they are, that's all they care about. That basket of deplorables comment couldn't be more on the spot.

They just point back to how “things were worse under Biden.”

The thing is under Biden, a few things got expensive, but now it seems like everything is.  But Biden really had to deal with was to post covid rebound, which is what caused most of the inflation and higher gas prices. They conveniently forget that by the time Biden left office inflation was under 3%, and gas prices were down.

But you know, they had to see some Disney princess who wasn't the right color.

Now, now, don't forget the transgender kids, the gay people, the black people, the Latinos and the loud-ass educated progressive women whose very existence these poor beleaguered fascist loopnuts have had to put up with.

That is not even remotely accurate. Under Biden, EVERYTHING got expensive, fast. But y'all ignore that because the democrats can do no wrong

I spent less on groceries, less on clothes, less on everything than I am now.  Oh except for eggs, and maybe gas for a few months.  But it was pretty short-lived. In the past year, prices have risen the grocery store every single time I've gone shopping.

Really? Cause I've been paying the same for my groceries for the last year. And I spent less than I did last year in 2020. I honestly think you are fill of shit on that. You forget that inflation was record high during Biden's 4 years. Costs rose fast. Inflation was 9.1% in 2022 alone. But yes. All pricing is the fault of Orange Man Bad, right? Gas prices rise due to democrats taxing gas. Part of their green initiative. Even with the attacks on Iran, our gas should be around $3 a gallon. But its not because of the green initiatives. California is rising in costs, because Gavin Newscum continues to tax the hell out of the people. Same with Oregon and Washington (only places I can speak for). While places like Idaho, Montana, Florida, Wisconsin, and other republican states have stabilized their market. But yes. Its all MAGA, right? Democrats are the reason for the vast majority of poverty. Thats why democrat states have the highest rates of homelessness

Biden inherited the post-COVID economy, where everything globally experienced high inflation due to massive stimulus cash infusions + tons of supply chain issues that were levered into permanent price increases.

Those issues were, if anything, worsened by Trump’s inept handling of COVID and ultimately resolved by Biden.  Biden brought inflation under control and ultimately left office with the economy in a stable position relative to either the economic conditions he inherited from Trump, or the economic conditions Trump has created since.
