Trump Declares Inflation 'LOW' While Prices Do Mutiny
In a shocking turn of events, President Trump proudly tweeted 'Consumer Prices LOW' as tariffs threaten to inflate costs nationwide. Treasury Secretary Bessent proclaimed 'inflation propagandists have been proven wrong,' even while economists warn prices rose 2.7% in June and expect more hikes, saying 'by the end of August... those who said tariffs would increase prices were right.' Businesses remain stuck between tariff uncertainty and the looming prospect of passing higher prices to consumers, proving once again that economics is just an elaborate game of "wait and see who pays."

Trump says tariffs keep prices LOW, but grocery aisles now accept barter and tears. Inflation's just fashionably late, apparently. Patience, America. Also, buy stock in canned goods before August.
If doubling down on tariffs doesn't work, maybe tripling down will! Or just hire a cashier to tell you prices are 'stable' while your wallet cries.
Watching US tariffs is like waiting for a pizza delivery â you know it'll eventually show up late, cost double, and still somehow disappoint.
