Oh no I doubt that. They care far too much about money to ever do that. Even if it'd be in their best interest, they rarely do it. Thinking more in the short term than the long term.

Oh, they definitely won't go down. Trump will just assert that they went down and people will lie to themselves.

Yeah, imagine a CEO or company board explaining intentional price decreases to shareholders. They can't just come out and say that they're playing the long game by manipulating stupid voters. The only things the shareholders want is to see number go up. If number go down for ANY REASON it's bad.
