In his prime-time address from the White House, President Donald Trump made the claim that “inflation has stopped.” According to fact-checkers, this statement is inaccurate because inflation was still rising at the time of the speech and had not stopped, contrary to what was presented. Misleading economic information like this is troubling because many people rely on accurate data to understand their cost of living and make financial decisions. Misrepresenting inflation statistics can distort public understanding and erode trust in official communications from the government.
