    “Why didn’t Amazon do this when the Biden administration hiked inflation to the highest level in 40 years?” Leavitt asked during a press briefing.

    Because Biden didn’t start a trade war?

        When confronted with this nonsense, I had started telling people that Biden had levers on his desk labeled inflation and gas prices. And nobody could get him to stop pulling them. Taking it to the absurd was surprisingly effective.
