The one this year contains much less than what the one last year that's why the price is less. Karl explained that Walmart compared 21 products last year to 15 this year."
"HASSETT: No, and you want us to fix the hole that Joe Biden caused right away. KARL: No, I'm saying, why does the president tell HASSETT: The prices went up so much under Joe Biden and inflation is way down! Inflation is about half what it was in December. This is something that's being fixed fast, and real incomes are up after dropping about $3,000 under Joe Biden."
President Donald Trump claimed grocery prices are much lower and that Walmart reported a 25% decrease in the cost of its standard Thanksgiving meal compared with last year. NBC noted that Walmart's estimate compared fewer products this year. ABC's Jon Karl interrupted former Trump economist Kevin Hassett to point out Walmart compared 21 items last year to 15 this year. Karl said buying groceries for Thanksgiving will be more expensive despite the comparison. Hassett pivoted to blame inflation on Joe Biden, asserting that inflation has fallen and that real incomes are now higher after earlier declines.
