Democrat Party Posts Graph Showing Rise in Grocery Prices, May Go Down as Greatest Self Own in History

A Democratic Party tweet meant to attack Trump’s record on grocery prices backfired when users noticed the data actually showed sharp inflation starting under Biden. The post was deleted after intense mockery and fact-based rebuttals.

Key Facts:

  • The Democratic Party’s official X account posted a graph blaming Trump for high grocery prices.
  • The graph showed prices spiking from 2021 to 2024—during Biden’s term—and leveling off in 2025.
  • Critics, including journalists and GOP figures, quickly pointed out the contradiction.
  • The DNC deleted the tweet after backlash but did not issue a public comment.
  • Grocery prices rose over 21% during Biden’s presidency following 40-year-high inflation in 2022.

The Rest of The Story:

On Thursday, the Democratic Party attempted to attack Donald Trump and the GOP over rising grocery costs using a graph posted to its X account.

The chart, labeled “U.S. Grocery Prices Reached Record Highs in 2025,” appeared to blame the current administration for ongoing high prices.

But viewers quickly noticed a glaring flaw: the graph actually showed prices sharply increasing starting in 2021—when Joe Biden was president.

According to the data, those price spikes continued throughout Biden’s term and only began to stabilize in late 2024, around the time Trump returned to the White House.

One user summed up the general reaction, writing, “You’re showing us a graph of stable prices suddenly rising the moment you came into power.”

Others chimed in with biting sarcasm.

Wall Street Journal’s Kyle Smith quipped, “Wow 2021–2024 were pretty bad.”

Political commentator Carol Roth added, “This is not the flex they think it is.”

White House Deputy Press Secretary Abigail Jackson questioned whether Democrats could really be this unaware, and even Veterans Affairs Secretary Doug Collins mocked their ability to read graphs.

After the flood of criticism, the tweet was deleted without explanation.

Fox News reached out to the Democratic National Committee, but they have not responded.

Despite the embarrassing post, congressional Democrats are still trying to link Republicans to food costs.

They recently launched a website claiming to show how GOP policies are increasing prices for everyday goods.

However, that claim clashes with the timeline of actual inflation trends.

Commentary:

It’s almost comical how often Democrats try to rewrite reality and end up exposing themselves.

This tweet is a textbook case.

They meant to smear Trump’s economic record, but instead highlighted how inflation took off like a rocket right after Biden entered the White House.

For years, Democrats have tried to pin the blame for inflation on everything but their own policies.

First it was COVID. Then it was “corporate greed. Now they’re pretending Trump somehow caused prices to rise when he wasn’t even in office.

It’s dishonest and insulting to the intelligence of everyday Americans.

The problem is, the average voter can see right through it.

People remember what grocery prices were in 2019 and what they were by mid-2022.

They also remember which party was in charge when their household budgets got crushed.

You can’t gaslight Americans with a graph that literally proves the opposite of your point.

It’s clear the Democrats have no grasp on how real people think or what life outside Washington looks like.

Inflation isn’t just a statistic—it’s a daily stressor.

Parents budgeting for school lunches, seniors living on fixed incomes, and young families trying to save all felt the squeeze under Biden’s watch.

What’s more frustrating is that the very policies fueling inflation—trillions in new spending, energy restrictions, supply chain interference—were proudly championed by Democrats.

Then they want to pass the blame to Republicans who weren’t even in power.

The internet made it much harder to get away with this kind of manipulation.

Within minutes, sharp-eyed users dismantled the bogus narrative.

This is the new normal—fact checks aren’t just for journalists anymore. And we say: let them keep doing it.

If the Democratic Party keeps stepping on these rakes, Republicans may not even need to buy campaign ads next year.

The Democrats’ own tweets are doing the job for them.

The Bottom Line:

Democrats tried to blame Trump and Republicans for grocery price hikes but ended up sharing a graph that confirmed the opposite.

Under Biden, inflation soared and grocery prices rose by more than 21%.

Americans remember who was in charge when prices exploded—and they aren’t buying the revisionist spin.

If this is the best the Democrats can do, the GOP should be feeling optimistic heading into the midterms.
