Recent analyses and polls indicate growing economic challenges in the United States under President Donald Trump's administration. Experts attribute rising job losses, inflation, and declining consumer confidence directly to Trump's policies, contributing to concerns about an impending stagflation. Inflation rates have increased, and the cost of groceries has become a major source of stress for American adults. According to an AP-NORC poll, nearly 90% of Americans are worried about grocery prices, with over half identifying grocery costs as a major stressor. These economic issues contrast with Trump's earlier claims in May that grocery costs were decreasing. The situation has drawn criticism from political figures, including Senator Elizabeth Warren, who highlights the gap between Trump's promises to reduce costs and the current economic realities.
