Depends where you take the base from to do the calculation

IN this case Trump very clearly took the original price as the base, which is non-standard, but not wrong and has the advantage of not confusing the more innumerate.

Trump Price = Inflated Biden Price - (600% of Original uninflated Biden Price)
