Another day, another Econ 101 lesson for Professor Warren. Her “Trumpflation” tracker conveniently ignores the Bidenflation tidal wave that crushed American families, cherry-picks wage growth by refusing to acknowledge positive real wage gains since President Trump came into off…

I think Warren's Trumpflation tracker gives a misleading picture of the economy. It overlooks Biden-era price rises and real wage gains since Trump took office, while using insurance-premium projections instead of medical-care CPI. A fair comparison should use consistent measures to assess Trump's record against the failed Biden policies Warren supported. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

Full frozen source read. Senate Banking Committee original tracker methodology and BLS real-earnings releases checked as a misinformation screen; the disputed methodological appraisal remains Bessent’s, not an independent statistical verdict. Standalone quote-post experiment, deliberate older-source exception.
