75% of Americans report soaring prices as Trump claims inflation ‘over’​

Exclusive poll: Inflation remains a concern despite president’s pledge to reduce prices on ‘day one’

Nine months after Donald Trump took office, promising to reduce prices on “day one”, a clear majority of Americans say their monthly costs have risen by between $100 and $749, according to an exclusive new poll conducted for the Guardian.


The president has continued to insist that there is “virtually no inflation”. “Prices are ‘WAY DOWN’ in the USA,” Trump wrote on social media in late August.

Yet according to a new Harris poll, Americans are still reporting soaring inflation and are increasingly pessimistic about the economy.

Inflation is over. It has been holding at normal average for months and months.
The problem is the inflation of 2021-2023. Once prices rise, they almost never fall.
Do you even know what inflation is? You are attempting to blame Trump and "MAGA" for prices that occurred 2 and 3 years prior to him taking office.

Trump said prices would drop on day one of his reelection.

No one is making that claim. The facts are inflation is slowing wages are up more and tax cuts increased spending power.

Tax cuts do not take effect until 2026.

different categories saw varied price changes, with some prices rising significantly (like electricity and medical care) while others, like gasoline, fell.

• Monthly Rate: Inflation saw a monthly increase of 0.3% from July 2025 to August 2025.

The trump economic disaster gathers pace. It will worsen as inventories run down and the tariff tax hits. At least you still have money to bail out the argentine nazis.

Yep.....president auto-pen really screwed everything up.

There is next to no inflation, but prices have stabilized at 400% of what they were when Biden took office.

Prices on meat of all kinds have gone up the most thanks to the slaughter of millions of chickens, pigs, and cattle by the Biden Adm.
Their excuse is they said the found bird-flu and other diseases. So the price of meat is higher thanks to the department of agriculture's massive move to jack up the price of all meats across the board.

Price of fuel did drop.

Why would Trump's USDA jack food prices up?

Yes, it did, and then it will go up once the oil producers reduce production.

How can the USDA jack up food prices?

How does that work?

Seems you libs think that your worst fears are reality.

You always say that the sky is falling, and when it doesn't, you claim Trump did something else bad.

Everything you libs claim is wrong with Trump is just negative attitudes about him. It has nothing to do with reality.

 

[Moonglow]

I got a buttcut of a Petite Jean ham fer a buck fifty a pound.

 

[mudwhistle]

I see no move to slaughter cattle, chicken, or pigs since Trump took office.

All of that happened under president auto-pen.

Nope, it is you the dope, who tries to pin oil production on a president along with gas prices

They get slaughtered every day but Sunday. What imaginary world do you live in?
