Are Trump & The Republicans Delivering For You?
President Trump and the Republican Party are working tirelessly to reverse Biden's inflation crisis, which sent prices skyrocketing. Current prices are a clear indication that they have already achieved real results by lowering the cost of gas and groceries, lowering mortgage rates, and boosting wages and paychecks. Here are the real facts that mainstream media won't tell you. Included are the sources for the information provided in order for you to review and get the full picture of what it all means for you, the average American citizens.
After four years of skyrocketing prices under Joe Biden and Democrats, inflation and prices are down, and wages are up.
The latest Consumer Price Index shows inflation was only 2.4% year over year, an eight-month low.
Inflation measures how much prices for goods and services increase over time. When inflation is moderate, it reflects a healthy economy where demand and supply are balanced. The current 2.4% rate suggests that price increases have slowed compared to previous months, easing pressure on household budgets and business costs.
Core inflation fell to 2.5%, its lowest level since March 2021.
For consumers, a lower core inflation rate usually means slower price increases on everyday goods and services. This can improve purchasing power, allowing households to stretch their budgets further. For example, if prices for clothing, healthcare, and housing rise more slowly, families may find it easier to manage expenses.
White House Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly: “This combined formula of tax cuts, deregulation, unleashing American energy—all of these actions combine to make a stronger economy, more money in the pockets of the American people.”
All private sector workers saw real earnings beat inflation by about $1,400 in President Trump's first year.
Real earnings represent the income workers receive after adjusting for inflation. Inflation measures how much prices for goods and services rise over time, reducing the purchasing power of money. When wages grow faster than inflation, workers can afford more with their income, improving their standard of living.
o Construction workers: $2,100
o Manufacturing workers: $1,700
o Mining workers: $2,400
President Trump promised to lower prices, and he is delivering for the American people.
One of the biggest challenges for any administration is controlling inflation. Rising prices reduce purchasing power and make it harder for families to afford basic needs. President Trump focused on policies to reduce inflationary pressures, including encouraging domestic production and reducing unnecessary regulations.
o Since President Trump took office, egg prices have plummeted over 30%.
o Energy commodity prices are down over 7%, and hotel prices are down over 3%.
Under President Trump, gas prices reached their lowest average price in more than four years.
One key reason gas prices dropped was the administration’s focus on increasing domestic energy production. The Trump administration prioritized expanding oil and gas drilling, especially on federal lands and offshore areas. This approach boosts supply, which lowers prices.
o Americans are on track to spend the lowest amount of their disposable income on
gas in the last two decades under the Trump administration.
o Under Biden, the average gas price was the highest it has ever been.
o Gas was over $3 a gallon for all four years of Biden.
o Cumulatively, energy costs under 4 years of Biden were more than $5,200
per American household.
Rent prices have fallen to their lowest level since 2022, after six consecutive months of price declines.
The six-month decline in rent prices signals a shift in the housing market that could last beyond the immediate future. Renters may enjoy more affordable options, while landlords face new challenges in maintaining income and occupancy. The overall market may see changes in demand patterns and investment strategies.
o This is the largest annual drop in more than two years — down over 6% from their
Biden-era peak.
o Real estate broker at Douglas Elliman: “2026 is shaping up to be one of the more
renter-friendly periods we’ve seen in a decade.”
President Trump recently launched TrumpRx.gov, a new platform that gives Americans direct access to dramatically lower prices on prescription drugs.
Under President Trump, consumer sentiment has spiked to a six-month high.
Under President Trump, the American economy is growing like never before.
o The Dow Jones Industrial Average recently shattered 50,000 for the first time
ever, and the S&P 500 and Nasdaq also smashed records, sending Americans’ 401(k)s
and retirement savings are booming under President Trump’s policies.
NEC Director Kevin Hassett: "GDP growth is through the roof... We're looking at 4% growth into the end of the year, 3% for the year as a whole, despite the fact that we had a really negative First Quarter with Joe Biden."
President Trump and Republicans in Congress have worked to lower costs and slash taxes by passing the Working Families Tax Cuts (the One Big Beautiful Bill).
o The largest tax cut in American history.
o Increased take-home pay by as much as $13,300.
o An end to taxpayer-funded benefits for at least 1.4 million illegal immigrants.
White House Deputy Chief of Staff James Blair: “The President is cutting taxes, he's growing the economy, and he's bringing fairness to the American people, so they're treated fairly by big corporations — and Democrats have fought that every step of the way."
The so-called experts continue to be proven wrong, and President Trump’s policies continue to Make America More Affordable.
o Interior Secretary Burgum: “President Trump’s economic policies are working,
whether it’s energy dominance… or whether it’s his tariffs. Everything that [critics] were
concerned about—that they thought was going to be an issue—has turned out to not be.”
Democrats lied when they said President Trump’s policies were causing higher prices, but they have been proven wrong time and time again.
After inheriting the worst inflation crisis in 40 years from Biden and Democrats, President Trump and Republican legislators' actions to Make America Affordable Again and crush inflation are translating into lower prices.
