    Food prices never go down. Once the greedy corporations know how much you are willing to pay they never go down. When the tariffs/taxes drop, they will profit the difference. tRump’s damage can not be undone.

    And grocery stores will keep the price the same and get some more of those record profits.

    Trump’s order also came just a day after Democrats on the congressional Joint Economic Committee released a report showing that US families are paying roughly $700 more each month for basic items since Trump returned to office in January—with households in some states, such as Alaska and California, facing an average of over $1,000 monthly.

    Edit and last one:
