🚨 NEW: Fox’s @​MarcThiessen just laid out the IRONY on the midterms: “As your polling shows, the number one issue for Americans across — in Texas, in Iowa, everywhere else — is cost of living. The irony is that most of the cost of living, the higher prices that Americans are paying, are due to Biden-era inflation, not to Donald Trump.” “If you look at the consumer price index, consumer prices, they’ve gone up 27.2 percent over the last five and a half years, from January 2021 until today. That means that something you bought when Joe Biden took office in January 2021, something that cost $100, now costs $127.” “Of that $27, $21 happened under Biden — 80 percent of it. So what’s happened is Americans are upset because they’re looking and saying, “I’m paying almost 30 percent more for everything right now than I did just a few years ago.” But most of that is Biden-era inflation that has been locked in.” “Now, Trump has contributed to it, but at a much lower rate. Inflation is about 3.3 percent, which is around the historic average going back to 1954. But the Biden-era prices have not reverted back to pre-Biden levels, and so Americans are frustrated,” he tells @​BretBaier. ▻
