Warren on ‘Shrinkflation,’ ‘Getting Fewer Doritos’: ‘The American People Are Really Sick of This’

‘He gets out there and talks directly to the people he’s fighting for’

EXCERPT:

WARREN: “You know, I’m going to say it this way. He is singing from the American people’s hymnal, because while I’ve been talking about corporate greed for a long time, the American people were way ahead of both of us. So, for example, talking about now shrinkflation, the idea that companies think they can just kind of sneak it past us to keep prices the same, but give us fewer Dorito chips, you know, fewer Oreos, fewer pieces of paper in the toilet paper roll, and American people are really sick of this. So I think what this is about is Joe Biden being Joe Biden. He gets out there and talks directly to the people he’s fighting for, and he talks about using all the tools of government to come back and say predatory pricing is predatory pricing, and it’s illegal. So they’re going to start the investigations, they’re going to stay after these companies, and they’re not going to try to give them a free pass. They’re actually going to dog them on this. And I think that’s good.”
