CNN’s puppet host read a headline that said: “It took the Fed years to bring down inflation. Then came Trump’s trade war.” But the Fed didn’t spend years fighting inflation. They spent years jacking it up, only easing it before the 2024 election to help Joe Biden. If they were serious about fixing it, they’d stop flooding the economy with cash and stop hiking interest rates, which hurt the economy no matter what they teach. Trump’s trade war is just a convenient excuse for their failures.
CNN parrots the Fed’s propaganda like a broken record—it’s burned into their brains. Then a CNN talker smirked, “I remember the campaign talking point being immediate relief, right? Inflation is terrible, it’s all Joe Biden’s fault. Donald Trump was gonna come in and fix it all. And that of course hasn’t happened. You have Americans increasingly uh not uh thinking Donald Trump is very good with the economy. I think his disapproval rating is something like 55 or 56%.” This is CNN at its finest: predictable, brain-dead noise masquerading as insight.
