Summary

After campaigning on promises to reduce costs for the working class, Donald Trump has largely gone silent on cost-of-living issues since his election.

In a recent interview, he admitted he could not restore grocery prices to 2019 levels without a recession.

While gas prices and groceries are already falling, Trump’s policies focus on government cuts and HB-1 visa expansions, which may harm his base.

Instead of addressing working-class concerns, he has turned to controversial ideas like buying Greenland or reclaiming the Panama Canal, drawing global criticism.

      You’re welcome.
