Corporate Media Try To Convince Americans That Inflation Progress Under Trump Is Temporary
President Donald Trump’s first full month in office was marked by one of the lowest consumer price index increases and the lowest level of core consumer prices Americans have experienced over the last four record-breaking years.
The White House celebrated the news as a sign that “inflation is declining and the economy is moving in the right direction under President Trump.”
“As he successfully did in his first term, President Trump is driving down costs through massive deregulation and energy dominance. The entire Trump Administration will continue to focus on fixing the economic and inflation nightmare created by the Biden-Harris Administration to unlock the Golden Age of America,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement.
Despite the significant inflation data shift, corporate media are attempting to sow doubt that Trump’s “America First” policies will yield the economic results his constituents desire.
Outlets acknowledged that February’s price hikes measured much “lower than expected,” but refused to give up on their attempts to sabotage the second Trump administration’s pledge to rescue and repair the economy. Some corporate media, such as CNN, couched their headlines with caveats about how “Trump’s tariff plans and trade war” were proof that economic “progress may be short lived.”
“U.S. Inflation Shows Improvement Amid Worries About Tariffs and Trade War,” one New York Times headline stated.
“Inflation eased in February, but trade war threatens higher prices,” The Washington Post declared.
“Inflation cools for now, but Trump tariffs could make relief fleeting,” Axios remarked.
“Inflation cooled in February, but economists say Trump’s tariffs haven’t had time to take effect,” Fortune claimed.
It is true that tariffs are an imperfect solution for the nation’s economic woes, but they are not the only measure that could influence the health of the economy moving forward. Already, Americans under Trump are seeing improvement in price cuts to popular expenses such as eggs and gasoline, which fell 3.1 percent since last February.
Much to corporate media’s chagrin, the nation is also reaping the benefits of “steady” job growth, which they pretended was happening under the previous administration using data falsely inflated by the Democrat regime.
Unfortunately for Americans, whose trust in the propaganda press is already at an all-time low, the corporate media’s attempts to twist economic reports is nothing new.
Democrats and their newsroom allies knew the economy was voters’ top priority heading into the 2024 election, which is why they worked so hard to whitewash the Biden administration’s role in destroying it. They even tried to deny the U.S. hit a Biden-induced recession before trying to sell it to struggling Americans as “good for you financially.”
Lies and deception, nor help from economic “experts,” who consistently projected smaller hikes than what the Bureau of Labor Statistics calculated, however, could contain Democrats’ CPI crisis.
Shortly before Trump took office, those same propaganda press and inflation afficionados claimed the Republican was set to inherit and then promptly ruin a “strong” and “healthy” economy with his tariff plans.
A few months into Trump’s second tenure, however, the economy has yet to see that “fresh spike in inflation” they promised would come. Instead, outlets complicit in the Biden administration’s big economic coverup are now forced to admit what Americans realized long before the 2024 election: Under Trump, inflation is taking and will likely continue to take a “step in the right direction.”
