The latest report on inflation<\/a>, delayed by the government shutdown, showed consumer prices rising 3% year-over-year in September, including a 3.1% uptick in cost for food at home. <\/p>\n

As rising prices continue to affect consumers, President Donald Trump<\/a> has pushed back on the idea that Americans are struggling financially. <\/p>\n

“The word ‘affordability’ is a con job by the Democrats,” Trump said during a cabinet meeting on Tuesday. “The word ‘affordability’ is a Democrat scam.”<\/p>\n

Lately, voters have expressed frustration with Trump’s handling of the economy. Around two-thirds of registered voters say the Trump administration has fallen short on the economy and the cost of living, according to a recent poll from NBC News<\/a>.<\/p>\n

When asked about Trump’s comments on Sunday, Bessent said that the administration was dealing with inflation issues leftover from the Biden administration and pointed to media coverage as a source of Americans’ view of the economy. \u00a0<\/p>\n

“The American people don’t know how good they have it,” he said. “Now, Democrats created scarcity, whether it was in energy or over-regulation, that we are now seeing this affordability problem, and I think next year we’re going to move on to prosperity.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
