Donald Trump says he has solved inflation. The American people strongly disagree.

Factcheck:
Donald Trump saying he “solved inflation” does not match reality. The consumer price level is still far higher than it was before the inflation surge, with cumulative prices roughly 20% above 2020 levels, meaning groceries, rent, insurance, and utilities never went back down. Inflation slowing is not the same thing as prices falling, and Americans feel the difference every time they pay a bill. Polling consistently shows voters rank inflation and cost of living among their top concerns, with majorities saying the economy still feels bad to them. The data say inflation eased from its peak, but the damage stuck, and people know it.
