Trump breaks 'Day One' promise to lower costs as prices surge across America in first six months

The defining promise of Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign was lower costs on "Day One." He broke it. The first six months of this administration have been marked by ever-higher prices.

Republicans in Congress would be wise to remember that voters are never quicker to fire elected officials than when they break a core promise. It is this Congress who will be on the ballot next year, not Donald Trump.

The campaign trail promises sounded too good to be true, because they were. Trump committed to "end" inflation, cut energy costs "in half," make health care more affordable, and that Americans would see "drastic price reductions" and cheaper groceries.



For most swing voters, lower costs were the whole point of voting for those now in power. They were counting on policies that would improve their lives, not make them harder. As polls show, the anger runs deep for a president and Congress who are gutting the social safety net, dolling out special favors to their wealthy friends and personally profiting from high office..............

1. I wonder how many voters really thought these things would happen

Listen to them now, they’ll tell you what they voted for. And it was cruelty to immigrants, minorities and women. I don’t see a lot of economic joy.

2. The man who told over 33,000 lies in 4 years lied again. News at 11:00.

Voters voted for trump because they are anti-women, hateful, racists, Christian Nationalists.
