Actually I have read the IQ is 67% on average with democrats. If they see it on the internet they know whatever is said must be true. The local propaganda channels will make statements that are 10% true, 40% bullshit and 50% lies. I see everyday chicken littles telling us the sky is falling under President Trump.
The truth is, costs have been going down for real Americans who don’t live in secluded, multimillion-dollar gated communities. Inflation has plummeted since the Biden regime, gasoline prices are lower, food prices are lower, wages are up and jobs for Americans are more plentiful. Americans are not struggling today in Trump’s economy nearly as much as they had been during Biden’s woeful years in office.
Quote:The annual inflation rate in the US remained at 2.7% in December 2025, the same as in November and in line with market expectations. Price pressures eased notably in the energy sector, with prices rising at a much slower pace (2.3% vs. 4.2%), driven by a decline in gasoline prices (-3.4% vs. +0.9%) and a moderation in fuel oil inflation (7.4% vs. 11.3%), while natural gas prices rose more sharply (10.8% vs. 9.1%). Prices also increased at a slower rate for used cars and trucks (1.6% vs. 3.6%). By contrast, price gains accelerated for food (3.1% vs. 2.6%) and shelter (3.2% vs. 3.0%). Meanwhile, the annual core inflation rate remained unchanged at 2.6%, the lowest level since 2021, below expectations for a rise to 2.7%.

Rate of inflation has moderated, as it had under Biden.
Yes, there was a world wide inflation spilke after covid
