This crazy inflation began under Bush Jr and has been rising ever since. No president has been able to fix it. We are living through a political dark age.

There's a schwarzenegger movie called RAW DEAL where an FBI agent is lead to a building filled with stacks of hundred dollar bills and he proclaims "someone call the president, I think we just fixed the deficit".

Biden's war on energy accounts for most of the out of control inflation and the federal reserve rate hike(s) for the continuing financial crisis for Americans. Slow Joe did all this..

Cherry picking and neglecting to point out that many of those figures were anomalies in 2020 due to COVID.

Also from the very page you linked:

During Trump’s four years in office, wages went up and inflation remained in check.
