trump to Blame for High Cost of Living

Trump to blame for high cost of living, Americans say in new poll

Six out of 10 Americans fault president for financial struggles

and eight out of 10 worry about tariffs’ impact

Donald Trump has simultaneously raised prices on everyday goods through:

• a reckless approach to tariffs, 

• a decimation of programs that help Americans afford healthcare, education, food and childcare,

• and then kneecapping federal regulators who keep banks and other big businesses from swindling consumers.

Trump is bragging about raising prices for American consumers

The No. 1 thing Trump said on the campaign trail
is that he would bring prices down.

But just a little more than six months into his second term, the president has accomplished the exact opposite

and he’s bragging about it, boasting that the administration has brought in $150 billion in tariffs. Paid for by American businesses and consumers.
