Are food and rental housing cartels pushing up prices to help Trump? [1]

I can see that rises in interest rates might cause house rentals to go up… and the Federal Reserve bank has boosted rates to combat inflation. But have profits risen among large house rental companies?

And have profits risen in the food industry?

I keep hearing the public is blaming Biden for higher prices. Forgetting of course that we came through the pandemic with less damage than any other country.

But … I wonder… whether pro Trump cartels are partially responsible for rises in rents and food prices. Any economists out there who can answer this question?
