there is a good point to be made, one that I’m worried about when it comes to joe not getting ahead of - it’s just not being made well there.

the numbers may be great for joe vs. trump, but many people who can’t or just don’t shop at multiple stores see the manifestation of record profits for grocery stores and some food producers (and drug store type things). I think I’ve said here that I’m seeing it as “it’s the personal economy, stupid.”
safeway is privately owned, but we see with those who aren’t that u.s. (and canadian) stores have taken advantage of what started with covid and have some ridiculously high prices for many items vs. target and walmart, at least.
joe and team have been good about pressure on pharma, oil/gas; but really bad about what people use day to day. they need to at least give visibility to it if not outright pressure.
