Trump dips into ‘danger’ by praising the state of economy: Byron York

Published



Washington Examiner’s chief political correspondent Byron York said Thursday that President Donald Trump risks his work on the economy and inflation by praising it, suggesting most voters don’t share the same sentiment.

Trump addressed the nation on Wednesday night to tout the progress he has made since returning to the White House, saying that the cost of living and various goods rose under former President Joe Biden, while these costs are now going down. Included in Trump’s speech was the unveiling of the $1,776 “warrior dividend” checks for service members, something York expects to be received with “huge approval,” and a preview of the tax refunds coming next year.
