For President Trump, the affordability crisis is a "hoax" perpetuated by Democrats. For the customer checking out at Costco or Walmart, it's a rising grocery bill threatening already fragile household finances. On Nov. 29, claiming that he was reducing drug prices by "500%, 600%, 700%, and more," Trump told his followers on Truth Social: If this story is properly told, we should win the Midterm Elections in RECORD NUMBERS. I AM THE AFFORDABILITY PRESIDENT. TALK LOUDLY AND PROUDLY! President DJT. The reality is that Trump does not want the story properly told.
