The inflation rate in the United States has dropped more than expected, down to 2.4 percent in March, as President Donald Trump is working to get deals with different countries following his reciprocal tariffs on several countries worldwide. The president has initiated a pause on the majority of the reciprocal tariffs, with the exception of China.

According to a press release from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, inflation decreased by 0.1 percent in March after it rose by 0.2 percent in February this year, with the annual inflation rate falling to 2.4 percent.
 
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said of the inflation numbers, "Inflation is down, jobs are up, and the Golden Age of America is underway. President Trump continues to undo the damage done by Joe Biden, and core inflation declined for the second month in row – great news for American families and businesses. President Trump’s aggressive economic agenda is already dropping prices across the board, from prescription drugs to car insurance."

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

What will the democrats say about this?  They've been lyin - er, warning Americans for the past two month that inflation is rocketing out of control and a recession is sure to follow under Trump policies.  Oh, I know, they'll credit Biden for the good news. :whistle:

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

If you scare enough people and get them to panic, the lies become self-fulfilling prophesy.

Problem is, we're just plain worn out on panic. The Bomb panic, terrorist panic, Climate Panic, COVID panic, panic panic, panic, with the lemmings being led off a fiscal cliff from time to time. Enough is enough. Even the milquetoasts among us all will take a stand, finally, and say "Bring it. We'll deal with it. We'll burn those bridges when we get there."

People are not buying what they are selling.
We know which end of the bovine it came from, and it isn't the end that moos.

They even have to hire people for protests. Think about that.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
