[QUOTE="RobGMN, post: 8911586, member: 683408"] You used it as an excuse for Trump's failings. The word "fake" has a very specific meaning. If you didn't mean to use it in your defense, then you shouldn't have. Never once have I claimed the CPI data is fake. "Fake news" and "fake data" seems to be your and ThxOne's fallback defense of the Diapered One. You claimed your grocery bills "doubled" by citing your ten dollar diet cokes, but failed to prove the claims, ever. And, you failed to mention that the Diet Coke price increase you saw was due to buying in lower quantities for health reasons. Yet, I ponied up a full older grocery order, and then showed what the prices of those same items, in the same sizes, from the same store (with a market size of about 275,000 people), had become. The prices were not doubled, and in fact had gone up about 3%. While you were claiming your grocery prices had DOUBLED int he same time frame. "DISINGENUOUS"? Seriously? I prove a 3% increase in prices while you claim DOUBLE, with no proof. At the time of your "ten dollar" Diet Coke that had "doubled" in price, it was on sale for $8.98 for a twelve pack at WalMart. In May 2019 at KingSoopers, it was $6.49, but you had to use their card to get that price.
