I agree. I recall being amazing at a speech by Obama where he was bragging about his efforts to “raise the price of your homes”. As a potential home buyer at the time, I was flabbergasted that a president would brag about increased prices. Clearly he had chosen a side between the home owner and the home renters-who-would-like-to-own-one-day.

I recall thinking, “would a president ever say such a thing about a gallon of milk? Or a loaf of bread?”
