You Can’t Make This Up: Leftists Now Complaining That Trump’s Bringing Prices DOWN

Few corners of the internet are as toxic or unhinged as Reddit. The site has become a cesspool of left-wing extremism, where activists openly call for violence against ICE facilities and federal agents.

It’s a playground for radicals who genuinely believe January 6 was worse than 9/11 or even the Holocaust — a delusional echo chamber where common sense goes to die. No, really.

They’re fueled by a reflexive hatred of President Trump and anything remotely conservative — which explains why one Reddit user actually managed to get angry that prices at Costco are falling. In today’s Left-wing echo chamber, even good economic news becomes bad if it can’t be twisted into an attack on Trump or capitalism.

You can’t make this up:

There really is something wrong with them. Now they are upset because prices are coming down.

Here’s what the post says:

Costco is quietly slashing prices. This feels wrong.

I go to costco every week. it’s probably the only thing i do consistently. i’ve been doing it for years, i know how the prices move. lately? everything’s discounted. i’m not talking promo tags or little manufacturer markdowns — i mean whole shelves of items dropped 20–40%. across categories. not seasonal either.

this isn’t normal. prices are supposed to be going up with tariffs, inflation, shipping costs, whatever. instead they’re dumping inventory. aggressively. either demand is collapsing or something upstream is forcing their hand.

it just doesn’t make sense. it feels off. maybe i’m overreacting, but i’ve never seen price drops like this since i started going. if this is what it looks like at costco — the most stable, boring, buy-in-bulk fortress of consumerism — then i don’t really want to know what’s coming next.

maybe it’s nothing. but probably not.

As of September 26, annual inflation stood at 2.7%, with core inflation — excluding food and energy — at 2.9%.

Costco, meanwhile, has maintained its long-held policy of being the “first to lower, last to raise” prices as economic conditions shift. During a March earnings call, CEO Gary Millerchip reaffirmed the company’s commitment to saving consumers money. Falling gas prices, which influence the cost of goods and services, have also contributed to lower prices across the board.

The company did increase membership fees last year — its first hike in nearly a decade — to help offset rising costs, while continuing to cap markups at 14%, a move that keeps prices relatively stable.

So, there’s a clear economic explanation for why Costco prices are falling. Yet on Reddit, some users still managed to twist the news into a negative — a reflection of the lingering “Trump Derangement Syndrome” that infects so many left-leaning online spaces. Lower prices should be good news, but for some, anything that could be seen as a win for Trump’s economy must be treated as a problem.

How long before Democratic talking heads start echoing this logic, complaining that lower costs are somehow bad? It seems the Left would rather Americans struggle than admit that Trump’s economic approach might actually be working.
