From your link:
"where he assured voters that his administration would swiftly tackle rising prices"
He has done that. He was not talking about the inflation rate, but prices. That you just being a victim of TDS.
No it is not. But Biden got it down to 3% and turned that over to trump. Inflation was at 3% and trending down. It trended down the first 5 months of Trump's term. It now has been trnding up.
The good news is because of the inflation expected to trend up, the interest rates will be lowered.
MAGA makes cheap excuses for ever Trump lie and mistake. Pathetic

Democrats had a four year total inflation rate of about 20%.
The right? Do you mean the MAGA cult that has hijacked the republican party. The republican party that usually represents conservative policies and conservative values. The MAGA republicans are not conservatives. Tariffs are not a conservative economic policy. Adding billions of dollars to the national debt is not economic fiscal policy. Conservative family values don't include 5 children by 3 wives, many documented affairs including one with a porn star. It does not include bragging about grabbing women by the *****. It does not include having a charity closed because the money was going to Trump instead of 5013c corps.
MAGA is a joke not conservatives. They are not right, they are wrong.

And as we all know, inflation has nothing to do with prices. Glad we cleared that up.
No, you're just low human capital.
Don't insult true conservatives by calling yourself a conservative.

You can't have price increases over EVERYTHING without inflation. It's all in the way it is calculated, but you can have some inflation while most prices go down. It's just facts, and you can't handle the truth.
Every percent is $800 to the average family. Add that on top of higher healthcare and tariff impact coming. Seems bad to me.
Wut? Most prices cannot go down with inflation going up. That doesnt math my 3rd grade friend.
The candidate Trump said it would be easy to fix. On day 1 we would see prices come down. I think you may be mistaken. You guys have an excuse for everything for this guy. Why are you so deeply in love with that man?

he's brought down the rate of inflation and gas prices .. like I said your party did so much damage it may be impossible to fix .. so yeah .. Trump may be wrong about it being easy to fix .. but at least he's making some things better .. unlike your incompetent party !
The economy is not doing better under Trump. Inflation is the same in September 2025 as it was when Trump took office.
The average price of electricity per kilowatt-hour has increased since the same time last year. Residential electricity costs were 6.2% higher in August 2025 than they were a year earlier, the latest federal data shows, while natural gas is up 13.8%. That's higher than the annualized overall rate of inflation, which was 2.9% in August.
A pound of ground beef, which was $5.55 in January, was $6.32 in August, according to CBS News' price tracker. A pound of ground coffee, which was $7.02 in January, was $8.87 in August, partly due to tariffs. But some prices have come down. Egg prices, which spiked due to a bird flu outbreak, are less than when he took office in January —

Show me on this chart where it is going down.
$0.06-$0.08 per gallon by slowing down the economy isnt a great trade off genius. What will you do with your $18 annually saved so you can pay higher healthcare premiums, higher prices for tariff goods, and more people on unemployment?
Look at you setting up a strawman just incase the economy goes bad you'll blame it on the Biden administration that passed a great economy over. That is just blind tribalism. Every single meaningful metric has got worse this year. Unemployment, inflation, and GDP specifically. I am not pretending like we are in a crisis yet (like you are doing about the Biden economy which was the best in the world and produced record profits, jobs, employment, GDP growth, and the list goes on) BUT the signals are getting worse not better.
Try developing some objectivism. Happens when you become educated on topics.
