Why this verdict View evidenceHide evidence
Why we checked itA claim about the size of price increases; checkable against consumer price data.
What we foundPrices in all four named categories rose under the Trump administration, but the characterization that all went 'through the roof' is exaggerated — gas and health care saw dramatic increases, while grocery and housing inflation was meaningful but moderate.
