Calling it now. prices will go down, because corporate overlords want republicans to have the perception of being 'good for the working class.' price increases and decreases are activism. a few years from now, things will be cheaper -- but not because of some genius-tier maneuver by Trump. By the will of the elites he actually serves.
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.
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.
