In a recent interview with Time magazine, Donald Trump walked back his campaign promise to lower grocery prices.
“Look, they got them up. I’d like to bring them down. It’s hard to bring things down once they’re up. You know, it’s very hard,” Trump told Time, admitting to what many of us knew months ago.
On Thursday, Trump offered up a perplexing story about “an old woman” buying three apples at a grocery store and taking “one of the apples back to the refrigerator” because the price was too high. (Apples are not usually stocked in refrigerators.)
The only thing that’s clear in Trump’s incoherent story is that he hasn’t spent much time in a supermarket in a long while.
