The Numbers The Media Is Not Showing You

From an X post:

In case you are having trouble reading the numbers:

INFLATION
🟦 Biden: +12.3%
🟥 Trump: +4.3%

GROCERIES
🟦 Biden: +15.8%
🟥 Trump: +3.3%

GAS
🟦 Biden: +69%
🟥 Trump: +12%

RENT
🟦 Biden: +7.7%
🟥 Trump: +4.5%

ELECTRICITY
🟦 Biden: +19.1%
🟥 Trump: +8.4%

NEW & USED CARS
🟦 Biden: +23.9%
🟥 Trump: −1.2%

I know gasoline prices are high right now, but they will come down. We know the reason they are high. Unfortunately because previous administrations loved kicking the can down the road, we were faced with a choice between higher gasoline prices or Iran with a nuclear weapon. Our children and grandchildren will appreciate the fact that we (so far) have been willing to make that sacrifice.

The post at X states:

That doesn’t mean Americans aren’t feeling real affordability pressure. They ARE. But during Biden’s term, I REMEMBER the media making it feel like everything was fine but the opposite was felt by Americans in the real world. Today, it seems to be the opposite. People’s conditions are improving but the perception is that life is worse. That’s exactly why you have to separate how people feel, what they’re being told, and what the underlying data actually show. We’re heading toward the 2026 midterms.

A vote for Republicans in the mid-terms is a vote for a strong economy. A vote for the Democrats is a vote for less freedom and more regulations.
