Summary
Trump admitted it will be difficult to lower consumer prices, despite campaign promises to reduce grocery, energy, and overall inflation costs.
Trump told Time that achieving price reductions is rare without major economic downturns.
During the campaign, Trump blamed rising costs on Democratic leadership and proposed tariffs as a solution, but economists warn tariffs could raise prices further.
Inflation, a key voter concern, played a significant role in Trump’s election victory, though he has yet to outline a clear plan to deliver on his economic pledges.
Trump: hey! I got an idea that could lower those prices and fix our borders…we will bring enough migrants in to be able to plant, care for and harvest our food crops which are not easily automated! In return the migrants may eventually become residents or citizens. We’ll have the best migrants only by asking them questions before bringing them in such as…do you work hard or are you hardly working and happy to see me? It will be the best question ever asked of any one. And to the bad Compadres, we will tell them “you’re fired” ha ha ha! It will be the best. Best carrots and apples and oranges we have ever tasted…we will also have water desalination plants to water all the crops. And we will donate our surplus to countries like Ukraine who may need support for a while.
Just play along… If that fuck does even 1% of this we should be so Lucky.
