“Today’s expectation-beating CPI report proves that President Trump has defeated Joe Biden’s inflation crisis: overall inflation fell, and real wages grew by $1,400 in President Trump’s first year in office. Housing inflation notably continues to cool, while prescription drug prices actually fell in 2025 — with even more price relief ahead for American patients thanks to President Trump’s Most Favored Nation drug pricing deals and the Great Healthcare Plan. With inflation now low and stable, America’s economy is set to turbocharge even further through long-overdue interest rate cuts from the Fed.”
