Donald Trump has recently claimed to have 'won affordability' and made significant strides in reducing living costs in the United States. However, his assertions are largely unfounded. For instance, his TrumpRX program, which he touts as offering the lowest prescription drug prices, covers only 61 medications, and many of these are still more expensive than in countries like Japan and Germany. In housing, Trump has attempted to curb rising rents through an executive order aimed at limiting Wall Street purchases of single-family homes, yet experts note that institutional investors own only 2% of such homes, making this action largely ineffective. Additionally, food prices have continued to climb since his presidency began, with an overall increase of 3.1% reported between February 2025 and February 2026. Trump's claims about tax relief on overtime pay and Social Security benefits have also been criticized as misleading, as many Americans still face tax obligations on these incomes. Programs like Trump Accounts, which provide a one-time deposit for newborns, disproportionately favor wealthier families, leaving many struggling households without significant help. Overall, while Trump's statements may serve his political agenda, they do not reflect the reality faced by many American families.
