Economic illiterate Senator Warren released a memo attacking McDonalds for price gouging. I think the memo was dated 6 October, but was published after Trump's visit. 'There's a new enemy, boys!'

The neo-Maoists are very quick to align on a narrative. You do not hate the Corrupted Media enough.

The Left has hated McDonalds for decades. Remember Fast Food Nation? Remember Super Size Me? Remember the sacrilegious paintings of Chris Woods?
They're simply seizing on an opportunity.
(What really galls me is how the Left attacks Trump for supporting the exact same sort of policies that they promoted back in the 1990s and early 2000s. They're the ones that railed against the "invisible costs" of importing cheap goods from China. They're the ones that railed against "American military imperialism". They're the ones that railed against NAFTA killing Michigan's auto industry. Etc. etc. etc.)

The notion that inflation is just a conspiracy by corporate America is cherished by this group.
I haven't seen this level of anguished pushback since the Willie Horton ad in 1988 or the swiftboat stories in 2004.
