Don’t you love it when CNN is forced to report on reality and admit that things are going well under Trump?
This week, they reported that inflation is down. In fact, they report that ‘core inflation’ is at its lowest level since 2021. Hmm… what was happening in 2021? Oh right, Joe Biden.
The media wants so badly to report gloom and doom under Trump, but they can’t with news like this.
The Daily Caller has details:
CNN Reporter Says ‘Inflation Took A Big Step In The Right Direction’ To Start Second Year Of Trump 2.0
CNN business reporter Matt Egan on Friday highlighted an “encouraging” new inflation report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).
Inflation unexpectedly eased to 2.4% for the 12 months ending in January following a 2.7% rise for the 12 months ending in December, according to the BLS. Egan noted on “CNN News Central” that core inflation’s decline to 2.5% was the lowest annual rate since March 2021.
“[T]his is some encouraging news on the cost of living. Inflation took a big step in the right direction to start the year off. So, consumer prices, up by 2.4% year over year,” Egan said. “That is an improvement from 2.7% in December. That beat expectations, which were for 2.5%. In fact, this is a new eight-month low for annual inflation. Month over month, prices up by 0.2%, also a step in the right direction, also beating expectations.”
“Now, economists look really closely at core inflation, which excludes food and energy. Core inflation came in at 2.5%. That’s notable because that’s the lowest annual inflation rate for core since March of 2021, before the inflation crisis,” he continued. “Now, while we can’t exclude food and energy from our family budgets, that’s important because economists say that’s a better indicator for where inflation is going. And when you look at the trend for inflation over the last few years, you can see there’s been some improvement.”

This may shock you, but the so-called experts were wrong again.
On days like today, I like calling back to this headline from June 2024:
“Trump would make America’s inflation crisis worse, 16 Nobel economists warn”
CPI is at 2.4% YoY in January as gasoline declined 7.5%.
The “Nobel economists” were dead wrong. pic.twitter.com/89D9egXuoK

Trump knows what he is doing. He has a proven record on this.
