I went to Bloomberg to give a straight view from inside the White House on what’s driving affordability—and what we’re doing about it. I make the case that the Fed is behind the curve on rate cuts, explain why President Trump’s tariff authority is on solid legal ground at the Supreme Court, and lay out why tariffs are a national-security tool tied to the trade deficit and fentanyl emergency. We also talk about why Americans still feel inflation pain: the “lag” effect—like eggs falling faster than beef—and the reality of Biden-era policies that drove prices higher. The bottom line: we’re attacking inflation category-by-category, and we’re not going to let the media rewrite where this crisis came from.
