In the run-up to the midterm elections, US President Donald Trump has portrayed his economic agenda as a straightforward relief package for everyday Americans, emphasizing tax reductions, declining inflation, and cheaper prescription prices as essential tenets of his administration’s platform.

During a meeting of House Republicans on Wednesday (local time), Trump stated that his government is prioritizing lowering the cost of living by tax cuts and deregulation.

“As we rebuild the greatest economy in history, a top priority must be to bring down the cost of living,” Trump stated.

He said that the latest statistics indicate a slowdown in inflation. “The last three months… inflation was 1. 4 percent,” he stated.

Trump advocated several tax reforms, such as help for seniors and workers. “No tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax on social security for our great seniors,” he stated.

He portrayed these initiatives as a component of a larger legislative agenda. Trump said, “We passed the largest tax cuts in American history… the great big, beautiful bill. ”

Additionally, the President spoke on healthcare and the cost of prescription drugs, asserting that his policies have resulted in sizable savings. The cost of medications has decreased by 50, 60, 70, 80, and 90 percent, he stated.

Trump stated that the goal of his administration’s policies was to give advantages to consumers directly. “I want this money to go directly to the American people so they can buy their own healthcare,” he stated.

He also advocated for reforms to insurance systems and increased price transparency. “You’ll pay a lot less… ” Trump stated, “It’s going to be better care at a lower cost.”

Trump asserted that his policies had lowered drug prices worldwide in terms of pricing and trade. “We go from the highest price ever paid to the lowest price in the world,” he said.

Despite international conflicts, such as military operations abroad, the President maintained that economic progress was made. Markets have proven resilient even during recent operations, he said. “I expected the stock market to drop a bit more... However,” Trump remarked, it didn’t matter to me.

Trump asserted that his administration had inherited high inflation and had successfully turned the tide. “I inherited the highest inflation in the history of our nation,” he stated.

Furthermore, in advance of elections, he connected economic success to a more general political message. “Just that should win the midterms,” Trump said, alluding to lower drug costs.

The remarks coincide with the administration’s efforts to rally backing for economic concerns, such as wages, taxes, and consumer expenses, in advance of the midterm elections later this year.
