Trump’s Campaign Message About Inflation Is Wrong On His Promises—and On Biden’s Success

On the campaign trail, Donald Trump has been hammering away at President Joe Biden for the “nightmare” of “disastrous inflation.” He has made inflation one of his key attacks against the incumbent President, even blaming Biden for food prices increasing by up to 50% or 60%. (They have not.) Trump’s attack conveniently ignores the economic facts: as Nobel Prize Laureate Paul Romer wrote this week, inflation as measured by CPI is about 2.8% and still falling, which Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell celebrated last week as down from a high of over 7%. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] And this falling inflation is not just matched by record low unemployment but also 2.5% economic growth.
