The article highlights a disconnect between Donald Trump's loyal supporters and swing voters, the latter of whom expected him to deliver on promises to lower prices. However, the author contends that Trump's numerous policies, including tariffs and anti-migrant stances, inherently lead to price increases instead. Even firing federal workers, while seemingly a reduction in spending, fails to address the inflation issues, as these workers might find better-paying jobs in the private sector, leading to overall increased consumer spending and inflation.
Trump's hardcore supporters remain unwaveringly loyal, but swing voters hoped he'd alleviate prices, yet his policies are set to increase costs instead.
The majority of Trump's actions, from tariffs to deportations, primarily contribute to rising prices, contradicting voter expectations for inflation reduction.
