Jeebus! Inflation lowers the value of your money. A dollar that you had when Trump was president is worth 77 cents now. Or an item that cost a dollar when Trump was president will cost you $1.23 now. And that gallon of gasoline or diesel fuel will cost you almost twice as much.
You there.

Stop making sense. wink
