Summary
After campaigning on promises to reduce costs for the working class, Donald Trump has largely gone silent on cost-of-living issues since his election.

This was as predictable as the tides.
Conservatives have been stumped by tides for a while now.
Tide goes in, tide goes out. You can’t explain it.
