People have turned inflation into a partisan issue. However, the inflation we saw under Biden's first two years was very high (relatively speaking) while being denied repeatedly or claimed as "transitionary". The inflation we see this year is still inflation but it's not what we saw in 2021-2022 but some people are still trying to make political capital out of it.

Trump voters in Texas were just greeted with news that yet another oil and gas company was cutting 25% of the workforce due to low oil prices and offshoring engineering/research jobs.
