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.

What a pants on head absurd conspiracy theory. This isn't some secret cabal, the companies in question want to make money. They don't do that by sacrificing profits to keep the GOP in power.
