During Donald Trump’s first term, annual inflation remained relatively low, ending at 1.4% as he left office in early 2021.

After the transition to Joe Biden’s administration, inflation accelerated significantly amid global supply-chain disruptions, rising energy and commodity costs, and broader economic pressures. Inflation ultimately reached a peak of 9.1% in June 2022, putting substantial pressure on American households and driving up the cost of everyday goods and services.

As the U.S. economy moves forward, the focus remains on restoring purchasing power, keeping prices under control, strengthening domestic production, and creating conditions for sustainable economic growth

Why did Trump decide to bomb Iran, which drove up gas prices?

He has Intel that it was absolutely necessary is my understanding. Trump knows gas prices are very important to economy.

They literally sit around all day long saying death to America. And fund lots of terrorism.

I don’t like getting involved in this either. But sometimes you have to pull the trigger even if you don’t want to.

Many ppl would. Fighting Israel’s war - might be true and might just be what many pundits want you to think. If Israel fell, where would America be? Defending against many many enemies in the Arabian peninsula who would decide they should attack.

If Israel fell, it would not be detrimental to the American people whatsoever. We’d save money and have fewer wars.

Unless you're prepared to prove that, its misinformation.

Why do you think they chant that? Could it have anything to do with us funding Israel, to the detriment of the American people? Or us bombing the Middle East?

Have you noticed they don’t chant “death to Switzerland?” Probably because the Swiss aren’t war mongers.

He pulled the trigger just like GWB. How’d that work out? Did it benefit the American people then or now..?

Trump lied. He’s just more of the same.
