President Trump sharply criticized the Democrats for the highest inflation in U.S. history and soaring energy prices, asserting that affordability should be the standard of the America First agenda—not the empty promises of the left. “Affordable should be OUR word, not theirs. Because the Democrats go, ‘affordability, affordability...’” Trump said, emphasizing that the party he once led is delivering results for the American people.

Highlighting the economic failures under the Biden administration, Trump pointed to record energy prices and historic inflation levels. “...and they don’t say they had the WORST INFLATION IN HISTORY! The highest energy prices in HISTORY!” he added, underscoring the tangible impact of left-wing policies on everyday Americans struggling to make ends meet.

Trump also took aim at what he called Democratic dishonesty. “What they’re great at is LYING,” he declared, reinforcing the message that voters need leadership focused on results, transparency, and putting American families first.

The remarks come as part of Trump’s continued economic messaging, highlighting the contrast between the America First approach—prioritizing affordability, energy independence, and fiscal responsibility—and Democratic policies, which he argues have burdened Americans with historically high costs.
