Trump brands Kamala Harris’s lower grocery prices policy ‘communist’

Wait... wasn't he just giving a "press conference" about how grocery prices have gone up? If not price controls, what will hinder price gouging?

I genuinely wish we lived in the world they fear so much

Surely linking affordable groceries to communism will make affordable groceries less popular rather than communism more popular.

The reason publicly traded companies continually raise prices is the pressure from Wall Street to continually make more money than you did last month, last quarter, last year.

Say you sell 1,000,000 hamburgers and make a 20% profit on it.

Unless you make more money next year, selling that same 1,000,000 hamburgers, Wall Street is going to punish you. They don't care that you're profitable.

You either sell more burgers or raise prices.

Anyone that listens to him is a fucking moron.

Kamala’s plan is some sort of vague “stop price gouging,” but Trumps plan is even vaguer. His plan was to hold a press conference next to some sausages and say that his administration would lower prices. He gave even fewer specifics.

His actual plans are project 2025.

I AGREE, instead Kamala should do what Trump did and give us all multiple stimulus checks. Like how about every month. We can call it "Universal Basic Income."

You know how you end up with communism? You make it so nobody can afford their fucking groceries.

Trump called it "the Maduro plan" and I'm laughing. What an idiot!

Only words left in the conservative vocabulary: "Socialist" and "communist"

I think there is a difference between price-fixing and putting a stop to price-gouging.

I mean... Price control is kinda anti-capitalist, he's not wrong.

And no I will not vote for Donald Trump.

Fucking called it. That's all he knows to do.

Well of course paying lower prices is clearly communist /s

Communism would do much more.

Did he confuse the word consumerist ?

These prices went up under Biden, and Kommunist Camala wants to lower them!

-him, probably

You all heard it hear first, he wants to be the bread man for the Florida region.

Oh come on. The rhetoric is insane . I live in Florida and price gouging during a hurricane or other emergency is absolutely illegal here, there's a hotline to call if you see it. There is a difference between raising prices because your costs have gone up, and price gouging. If the invisible hand of the market isn't working (big surprise, ha) that's what laws are for.

Isn't he the same guy who's been promising to cut energy costs "in half or less than half," eh?

I recall this recent quote from him at Bedminster when asked about his campaign strategy: "All I have to do is define her as a Communist or a Socialist or say she will destroy America."

All this looks like a conflict on a stereotypical Middle-Eastern market.

Two sides with the emotion of "munnat" in long words and exaggerated comparisons talking stuff about each other that doesn't make sense, but nobody remembers it should even make sense.

Republicans do more of that, but funny for both.
