Much of the raising of taxes hasn't really taken effect yet. But since Oligarch Media want us eventually gouged to pay for their tax breaks, let's all give Dear Leader a handjob now.

I call absolute Bullshit!

Funny how any good economic news under Biden was a met by Trump saying that was fake news and when it happens under his regime, he takes credit for it completely. Worthless, motherfucker he is.

Bawahahahaha! What tariff rollout? More like a tariff slinky. I don’t know where they are shopping but my costs continue to rise weekly. Businesses don’t know what to do other than keep rising prices to protect their profits. Thanks TACO child.

That’s because TACO.

Ya, because we're not buying anything we don't have to.

The framing of this is absolutely ridiculous Inflation rose Period Nonstop. Inflation rose less Hmmmm Inflation rose less than expected The media is failing us

Who decides how much inflation has actually risen? Could it be the same people trying to convince you the president isn’t batshit crazy? The same people who think sending troops into L.A. is a good idea?

Probably because people aren’t spending.

Because inflation and tariffs aren't related

Please take an Econ 101 class before posting incorrect information. Tariffs raise the cost of goods sold for retailers, those costs are passed along to consumers and result in higher inflation. With TACO playing tariff slinky retailers keep raising prices to stay ahead and protect their profits.

Higher costs isn't inflation. Inflation is the decrease in value of a currency because more of it is printed, which usually results in higher prices. Businesses don't need inflation to raise costs. They aren't the same.

Are they cooking the books? When there is a long pattern of manipulation and cheating, one has to wonder.

I don’t believe a word that comes from anyone in this administration. I can’t understand why CNN does.

A lot of those tariffs never materialized TACO

You forgot to mention that the inflation stats are being rigged.

Another, more accurate headline would be “Inflation still trending upwards despite lack of petroleum demand, Americans bearing the brunt of Trumps Tariffs” How does that boot taste?

The value of the US dollar has dropped 9% since January. 4.5% in April alone… Morgan Stanley forecasting another 9% drop by this time next year. Gee, I wonder if that will affect inflation? 🙄

It's a lie. Trump's ballsack lickers run the Labor Dept. Inflation is twice that. DON'T BELIEVE THE GOVT NUMBERS for the next 4 years. ALL LIES.

And effective June 1 just about EVERYTHING I buy went up. Can’t wait for June, July, August numbers.

Five months in there are signs of a failing US economy coming with the gutting America. Multiple farm acreage up for sale. Unusual in my state. I see many satellite postal drop boxes removed. LA protests and big beautiful bill are distraction from the underground attack by this administration?

Nothing to do with Trump’s chaotic tariff policy. The market figured out how to deal with his insanity

Corporations and companies stocked up in anticipation of tariffs. That of course takes months going back to when we had a real President at the helm in Joe Biden. It's almost like felon Trump was being groomed for a sequel as felon President?

Bullshit. Everyone else but CNN knows the Trump shitweasels can’t math.

TACO 🌮

For anyone who's wondering, it seems to be because gas demand has been falling because economic demand is down. So gas prices are down. So right now that's balancing out the inflation and then in the end you get weaker economy and the inflation. Enjoy.

Also, just a personal comment because I haven't seen anybody talk about this in a while, but how many of his tariffs are still on? After all, he can't seem to keep them up, ever 😄

Here's an article that actually has some numbers and so is actually remotely useful. www.npr.org/2025/06/11/n...

Go out, do a little shopping. Reality says prices are up significantly more than 0.1%. Not just from last year, last month.

I don't trust the numbers. I am sure a filthy boer influenced them

Sugar coated truth @cnn.com do better, “inflation is rising”

Consumers are hanging on to more of their money IN ANTICAPATION of higher prices. #inflation #tariffs #TrumpCrimeFamily #Trump

That's a good thing, right?

😹😹😹 I will not believe one word, one #, one f’ing thing they say! They would not know the truth if it was right in front of them. (You cannot say slapped them in the face)🤦‍♀️😹

Je! 5% instead of 5.5%
