This week President Joe Biden welcomed President-elect Donald Trump back to his old home at the White House .

This magnanimous act runs in stark contrast to the cold reception Trump gave Biden in 2020 when the roles were reversed.

Biden inherited an economy from President Trump in shambles with the greatest economic collapse in the post-World War II era due to COVID-19 .

Despite understandable concerns about post-Covid inflation, prices continue to fall as wages rise.

Cost of milk, meat, bread, beverages, fresh fruit and vegetables, diapers, paper towels, toilet paper, and much more have notably fallen.

President-elect Trump will likely attempt to claim credit as wages continue to recover from pandemic-led inflation.

President Harry S. Truman once advised: “It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit”.
