Trump telling a room of reporters that he “loves inflation” almost seems unbelievable.

Speaker Johnson said Republicans have a plan to "adjust and fix” Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.

Republicans continue to stick with a president who says he "loves inflation” instead of doing anything to lower costs for you.
It’s time they start explaining why.
Republicans would rather defend Trump's gas hikes than do anything to bring costs down.
That tells you everything you need to know about their priorities.
Over 500 days into Trump's presidency, instead of fulfilling his promises, he loves the higher prices you're paying.
You thought it was bad now? Oil executives just warned it's about to get worse.
That's the reality when you have a president who's out of control and a Republican party too afraid to hold him accountable.
