(From Fourth District Congressman Mark Alford)Folks, the July inflation report is sending a message — and the message is clear: President Trump’s economic agenda is working.
Prescription drug prices fell 0.8%, gas prices dropped 2.9%, and auto insurance costs fell 0.3%. Real wages are rising, and we’re seeing relief on everyday staples like eggs, poultry, and dairy.
This is what happens when promises are made and those promises are kept. Lower costs, stronger wages, and more money in the pockets of hardworking American families.
The policies are taking effect, and we’re seeing the results.

Violent crime is dropping
Violent crime is dropping across America — and it’s not by accident.
Homicides are down 17.2%. Robberies are down 16.6%. Rapes are down 6.2%. Aggravated assaults are down 5.7%.
Strong leadership works, folks. President Trump is delivering safer streets for the American people, and it’s showing up in the numbers.
This is what happens when we put law and order first.

This guy has not been to a grocery store or gas station in a while.
What else can he say?
Inflation and pricing were continually pimped by the Right Wing Nut Job Wurlitzer media machine, omg the price of eggs is worse than anything else could be, daddy knows best, so they said!
Still, the Republican base had a real, legitimate expectation fighting inflation and especially food prices would be a top action for Trump. (See the wanting badly to get fooled again movie!)
We all know what happened, thanks to Trump's chumps picking him a second time, wars of choice, soaring prices, tariffs at a whim, no tariff refunds for the little guy who paid them!
Hope none of their relatives are hungry on the poop deck of an aircraft carrier in the middle of nowhere!
The new fuel pumps should have the card reader mounted low. That way your're already bent over before you start the purchase!
If your paycheck went up as fast as your grocery bill this Alford clown would probably be against it!
No, 7:16AM we are all Paying through the Nose - THANKS TO OBAMACARE FOR - Higher Medical Costs, Pharmaceutical Costs, and Medical Insurance Premiums and Deductible Costs - with Fewer Services and Less Choices for Medical Practitioners.
Increased Federal Reliance, Massive Federal Subsidies, and Medicaid Expansion Costs contributed heavily to National Deficits. More of our Tax Dollars are having to Pay for this Debacle - Causing more and more Debt!
OBAMACARE WAS A TOTAL FAILURE - FROM DAY ONE!!!!!
Yesterday:
Can't make it up: Trump says, "The economy is doing unbelievably from the standpoint of Wall Street." Well, we don't live on Wall Street. How is the economy working for you?

Tonight I need to fill up with gas, the only thing worse than getting tRUMPed for gas would be getting tRUMPed at the diesel pump.
5:50PM, Well, my 401K, High Yield Savings, Roth IRA, and my Stock Accounts are all UP, and I live here! House is all Paid Off and looking at Building our New Retirement Home. Of course, when you Budget, Save, Live within your means and don't operate under the misconception of "Wants vs Needs", and THINK-LONGTERM, anyone can weather any short-term crisis. Having lived through several up and down trends in the last several decades and learned how to make money in every one of the down trends, you become more intelligent and not have to use the "Chicken Little Theory", and Panic that the Sky is always Falling. People need to Stop jumping off of cliffs, and get your Financial Life together and live, spend, and save within your means, and stop trying to keep up with Jones and buying things you don't really need, so don't listen to me and continue down your own paths where you will be working as a "Greeter when your 70", just to pay your Bills!
Good Luck!
You need to be preaching your wisdom at the local Dollar Generals and gas stations. Pawn stores and food pantries also too!
Poeple should know how great things really are under the Republicans!
While gasoline and utility prices soar to unaffordable levels, millions of Americans lose health care and their jobs, . All this while thousands of American sailors are trapped on ships in he Persian Gulf eat rotten meat and have toilets that don't flush.
While the orange tinted bone spurs draft dodger does DC home improvement projects like a methed up construction crew.
Has this guy left his house and actually went anywhere,! Gas prices are skyrocketing, massive food recalls from eliminating food inspectors, prices on food and well everything are skyrocketing as well. And there's a shortage of oil and all products derived from oil that's coming quickly. Autozone store managers got letters that said to expect oil shortages in the next few months. Our oil reserves are at historic lows. We're are war, one of the things promised would not happen by the current dementia ridden pedophile in chief in the White House. A Historic location that's being destroyed without congregational approval, which is required to change. And the GOP that likes to taught itself as a fiscally responsible party has driven the national debt to unprecedented heights. Giving tax breaks to billionaires and wealthy corporations while gutting the governmental agencies or outright stealing money to find it. Our country is the laughing stock of the world and we've turned our allies into our enemies and our enemies into would be allies!! This country is on track to destroy itself because 1 man is running amuck and congress and SCOTUS are allowing it to happen. We were once the bright shining star that others strive tp achieve and now we're about 2 steps from wishing we were able to be good enough to be a 3rd world nation. Shame on the people who voted him in and are allowing it to continue.
Why hasn't the Trump administration come up with a plan? Where are the concepts of a plan?
There is no massive increase in food costs being coordinated and perpetuated by PepsiCo and Walmart. Not in this world nope.
