Grandma is a Trumper and seems to think prices are going to start coming down.

Good luck with that. I'm not holding my breath.

That IS what they were promised. Not going to happen.

@amarand @evistre I saw a post about a guy commenting in the grocery line about being excited for prices to drop in January. Every woman within earshot laughed at him. 😂

@Autumn @amarand

I want whatever hopium they're huffing, to some extent, because it all looks so dire over here.

Ah well. I'll stock up on popcorn.

@Autumn @amarand

(I hope y'all know I'm not above at least one petty dig when prices do rise; I'll try to report back so y'all can share in the second-hand schadenfreude.)

@evistre @Autumn

Wait until their migrant-worker-picked fruits and veggies go UP 20-40% and durable goods go up 10-20%. It’s all going to add up. Tax breaks for the rich also means either raised taxes for everyone else and/or lack of infrastructure investment. Crappy roads and bridges. Not enough civil servants to deal with issues. Longer wait times. Reduced benefits. More rejections. It’s going to be a bumpy ride.

@evistre @Autumn

The people who want prices to go down because of Trump are going to be so fucked. (And I will be laughing.)

@evistre @Autumn

I mean, we’re -all- fucked, but I will be laughing at -them-.

@Autumn @amarand @evistre I went shopping yesterday and took pictures of commonly bought items in my house. Going to make an “I told ya so” composite of them.
