Back when Donald Trump was president, every time something went wrong or even when it just went not-great, critics loved to ask, “Are you tired of all the winning yet?”
Well, Donald Trump is no longer president. Joe Biden is.
And we have to ask … are you tired of all the winning yet?
Producer Price Index (PPI) came in at 9.6% y/y, higher than the estimate of 9.2% and Oct's 8.8%. New record high. Strong increases across all categories. We started 2021 with PPI below 2% y/y and now we're nearly at 10%. pic.twitter.com/IhMz8iv0F0

Last week we found out that inflation was up 6.8%. With producer prices up almost 10%, it looks like inflation is here to stay for quite some time.
Maybe the experts should start expecting things. https://t.co/nx4M0GvFZG

Higher than expected by whom? We all saw this coming.

What would’ve been truly shocking is if the lines on that graph hadn’t shot way up like that.

That’s the thing: Biden et al. actually believe we should be OK with all this.
Time for another CNN townhall.

What changed in January? Seems like there must have been something that happened that caused this historic spike in economic pain. I can't put my finger on it, what could it be?

Keep at it … we’re sure you’ll figure it out.

The sky's no limit for this administration. Inflation is expected to reach low earth orbit in the coming months then on to it's expected Mars landing in December of 2023. https://t.co/CQTTXPxo3c

Another prediction:
Jen Psaki will tell us today that it is good for us.

We’re tired of all the winning.
