On Fox News, President Donald Trump dismissed a supporter's plea about rising living costs, insisting prices, especially energy, are way down, though he said beef still needs to fall. He argued Republicans fail to talk about affordability and accused Democrats of lying about it. While gas averages are lower than last year, a Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory analysis cited by the New York Times found electricity prices rose faster than inflation in 26 states. Polls show many Americans stressed over grocery costs and most blaming Trump for rising prices, as his disapproval rating hits an all-time high.
