Sick of the both sideism arguments [View all]

Earlier I heard a commentator saying that Trump was doing the same mistake that Biden did which is to deny there is an affordability issue and people are struggling.
I do not recall the Biden administration dismissing the plight of people.

Biden and others were pretty clear that while inflation went down from 9 back to 2.5 , main street was still suffering.

Trump not only reversed the trend of lowering inflation but magnified the issues shifting the burden further to the middle and poorer people to the benefit of his rich friends.
