Unbelievable : President Trump on Wednesday dismissed concerns about the latest inflation report, which showed prices rising at their fastest rate in more than three years, telling reporters, “I love it.”
President Donald Trump said “I love inflation” after it rose to a three-year high earlier Wednesday amid the Iran war and surging gas prices—his latest dismissal of Americans’ economic concerns.
Trump said Wednesday the U.S. has been “taking out millions of barrels of oil” during the Iran war, claiming that’s why oil prices are at $85 a barrel (West Texas Intermediate crude oil futures were trading at $91 on Wednesday).It’s unclear what Trump meant by “taking out” oil; he also said the U.S. “took out the other night, 22 ships.”
22%. That’s the share of Americans who said in a Reuters/Ipsos poll released this week they are satisfied with Trump’s handling of the cost of living, less than the 29% who said they approved of former President Joe Biden’s handling of the issue when he left office.
