I'm doing fine thanks. While so many others were bitching about groceries to Trump, I didn't seem to have a problem affording them, so I didn't vote for Trump. But other people did. Those are the people you need to be concerned about.

You’re full of chit. Typical lying 🤥 liberal trying to push the BS.
From USDA.GOV
Consumer Price Index for Food (not seasonally adjusted)
The all-items Consumer Price Index (CPI), a measure of economy-wide inflation, was unchanged from November 2024 to December 2024 and was up 2.9 percent from December 2023. The CPI for all food increased 0.2 percent from November 2024 to December 2024, and food prices were 2.5 percent higher than in December 2023.The level of food price inflation varies depending on whether the food was purchased for consumption at home or away from home:
- The food-at-home (grocery store or supermarket food purchases) CPI increased 0.1 percent from November 2024 to December 2024 and was 1.8 percent higher than December 2023; and
- The food-away-from-home (restaurant purchases) CPI increased 0.3 percent in December 2024 and was 3.6 percent higher than December 2023.
The Food Price Outlook tracks and forecasts the annual percentage change in food prices by averaging observed and forecast prices for all months in the current year, compared to all months in the previous year. The Food Price Outlook forecasting methods are based entirely on statistical models that are fitted to recent trends in the data. These methods provide prediction intervals that narrow over the forecast period as more data become available and the degree of uncertainty declines. Discussions of price changes focus on the midpoint of these forecast intervals (titled “Mid” in the Food Price Outlook data files) and use the lower and upper bounds of a 95-percent prediction interval—based on past data, the annual level of inflation is expected to fall in this interval 19 out of 20 times—to reflect the level of uncertainty (titled “Lower” and “Upper” in the workbooks, respectively). For a summary of forecasting methods used in the Food Price Outlook, see the article ERS Refines Forecasting Methods in the Food Price Outlook.

ERS research and reporting of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for food contributes to an understanding of which food categories experience substantial price changes, how consumers spend their incomes on food, and how and why prices change.

The CPI for all food increased 0.2 percent from November 2024 to December 2024, and food prices were 2.5 percent higher than in December 2023.
The level of food price inflation varies depending on whether the food was purchased for consumption at home or away from home:
In 2025, overall food prices are anticipated to rise at a rate similar to that of 2024 and at a slower pace than the historical average rate of growth. In 2025, prices for all food are predicted to increase 2.2 percent, with a prediction interval of -0.4 to 4.9 percent. Food-at-home prices are predicted to increase 1.3 percent, with a prediction interval of -2.7 to 5.5 percent. Food-away-from-home prices are predicted to increase 3.6 percent, with a prediction interval of 2.0 to 5.1 percent.
- The food-at-home (grocery store or supermarket food purchases) CPI increased 0.1 percent from November 2024 to December 2024 and was 1.8 percent higher than December 2023; and

Didn’t say your life is shitty. Just knew by your panic over rising inflation that you have a personal problem happening. It’s very obvious.
The US has tons of job opportunities you should go for. Going back to work will help with your struggles.

YOu just don't get it. I survuved the first Trump administration....I survived Bidenflation, but there were a LOT of people who claimed Bidenflation was making it a challenge to feed their families. Trump actually came up with the word to describe what they were having issues iwth....'groceries'. And HE said he won an election because of it. Yet in all the greatness he has been creating this past week, the ONE thing he isn't focused on is the thing he said got him elected....Groceries.
I didn't vote for Trump and I will never vote for MAGA, so it doesn't matter one bit for me. But what about those people who won him an election? We can send back immigrants....we can take gender and pronouns out of government...we can tariff the hell out of the rest of the world., I really don't care as I'll be okay. But what about those voters who elected Trump based on his promise of bringing those "grocery" (Trump has an amazing knack at naming things we never thought of naming) prices down might be disappointed and it's THOSE people you have to worry about. Can you not get it thru your thick head that the people whose stomachs were growling because they couldn't afford groceries are watching governmtn jobs being eliminated...illegals being deported, pronouns being eliminated and all this other greatness....yet their stomachs CONTINUE to growl because the ONLY thing that Trump has done to address THEIR issue is blaming Biden.

Groceries WAS NOT in ANY way shape or form the impetus for why Trump was reelected. You don’t have just a thick head but obviously a mentally deranged, disturbed, delusional and dishonest one that needs for you to bang against a wall to maybe stop your head marbles from rolling around.
Well over half the voting population of the US wasn’t standing in line to vote for Trump because they were hungry.
But you would never understand because I’m sure you never watched even one of his rallies and saw the people who were in those massive crowds. Or saw the people lined up on the streets for miles waving their TRUMP flags.
Groceries. What a retard you are.
