Trump: Dems’ Faux Affordability Focus After Causing Highest Inflation Rate in Almost Half Century Is All About MidtermsNick Gilbertson 21 May 2026
WASHINGTON—President Donald Trump believes that Democrats’ focus on affordability is more of a means to try to win midterm elections to begin the impeachment process than it is sincere.
During an Oval Office event on deregulation Thursday, Breitbart News asked Trump whether he believes Democrats are genuine in their focus on affordability or if their focus on affordability is rooted in a desire to win the midterms so they can start the impeachment process.

“Yeah, the second. The Democrats had the highest inflation in the history of our country, 48 years, they say, but the history of our country. They had the highest inflation that we’ve ever had,” he said. “When I inherited it, I inherited very high prices, and from day one, they said, ‘Affordability.’ Affordability is their word, because they’re good at that, they’re good at words, but I’m good at words too.”
