It was yet another performance that left us wondering about President Donald Trump's failing mental faculties. Speaking to supporters at a rally in Mount Pocono, Pennsylvania, on Dec. 9, Trump was typically unhinged. '?'?And we have two price charts. Do you remember the last time I pointed to a chart? I don't care what these charts say. My all-time favorite chart was the chart I had in Butler. I said, 'Let's look at the chart.' I don't care how good that chart looks, it's shit by comparison to the one in' It's nothing. I like the Butler chart. Remember that was on how great employment was and all this, but I like it for other reasons. Look at that chart. It's good. But now that I talk about the Butler chart, I don't even want to look at it, doesn't mean anything. But look, Biden price increases and Trump price increases. Look at Biden. Up 37, 24%, 22, 21, 30.7, 30.7 again, 10.4%, 49%. Trump, the price is down 5.1, 4.2, 0.5, down 4%, 2.9. Look at that. Our prices are coming down. Their prices, it's a hoax. They're just ' Remember they said the Inflation Reduction Act, remember that? Billions and billions, hundreds of billions of dollars, the inflation, and after they got it approved, because we had a few Republicans that went along with that whole hoax. If there was a coherent thought buried in all that gibberish, he later tried to summarize it this way: 'Prices are coming down very substantially. But they have a new word. They always have a hoax. The new word is affordability.'
