Annual inflation was 3.0% when Trump took office on a pledge to lower inflation. Now, it's 3.4%. Trump is asking voters for understanding and more time. But elections are 52 days away, with early voting closer than that. https://t.co/p9mhRt0wUy 17.6K views · 188 likes · 32 reposts · 223 replies Open on X →
Trump, inflation, and the midterm elections. https://t.co/p9mhRt0wUy 10.2K views · 25 likes · 3 reposts · 8 replies Open on X →
Yes, Biden inflation was a disaster, peaking at 9.1% year-to-year in June 2022. Was 6.4% in January 2023. Then fell to 3.0% by June 2023 and remained in that range. Was 3.0% when Trump took over in January 2025. Now, 19 months later, it is at 3.4%. https://t.co/h8gnsC6PQt

@ByronYork Seems like many have forgotten Biden’s average of over 6% per year and don’t understand that things are better. Some want to punish Trump by bringing back the team that helped Biden create that mess. 24.9K views · 16 likes · 3 reposts · 12 replies Open on X →
There seems no doubt the U.S. is finally making progress toward ending the Iran standoff. More and more ships are making it through the Strait of Hormuz and the blockade of Iran is working. So will this benefit Trump politically? https://t.co/hujrFXeukd 29.6K views · 882 likes · 143 reposts · 140 replies Open on X →
From @WSJ "Iran’s leverage over the Strait of Hormuz is slowly but surely being eroded by the U.S. military campaign in the region. Crude oil prices remain below $100 a barrel on international markets, elevated but well below the critical threshold for the global economy...

That is correct. More worrisome than talking points, it did not seem that the administration had a fully agreed-upon reason for acting. https://t.co/hujrFXeukd 21.1K views · 27 likes · 4 reposts · 10 replies Open on X →
@ByronYork Yeah, he's said it multiple times. If you go back to the first two weeks, though, the reasons given by Trump, Rubio, Hegseth, and Caine were all over the damn place. The administration didn't even have a coordinated set of talking points. 22.4K views · 1 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →
IIRC, it was widely predicted that Republicans would win in the 2022 midterms. There was even talk of a "red wave." They won, but more narrowly than predicted. 16K views · 68 likes · 9 reposts · 5 replies Open on X →
@MarkHalperin @ByronYork Every election we are told how the Republicans are going to lose. This is a tale as old as time. 16.1K views · 0 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →
Does progress in Iran help Trump and Republicans in the midterms? https://t.co/hujrFXeukd 12.7K views · 33 likes · 1 reposts · 14 replies Open on X →
The president has said it several times, hasn't he? The goal is to keep Iran from having a nuclear weapon. I do not believe there is a forever way to do that. So you can set them back for years, but if they are still trying, you'll probably have to do it again at some point. But 23K views · 234 likes · 28 reposts · 52 replies Open on X →
@ByronYork Can you prove the Islamic Republic no longer has the capability to produce a nuclear weapon? How on Earth could you possibly make such a statement? 24.2K views · 3 likes · 0 reposts · 7 replies Open on X →
"The war’s main goal — ensuring that Iran does not acquire a nuclear weapon — was accomplished months ago. The time after that was spent trying to fix the problem created by the decision to go to war." 18.1K views · 46 likes · 5 reposts · 23 replies Open on X →
@ByronYork I've seen enough from Iran to know,without a single doubt, that Iran should never be allowed to have a nuclear weapon. Many Americans seem to not be too concerned. I am - and not for myself. No POTUS did anything to stop Iran from attaining such a weapon. Only DonaldTr 18.8K views · 16 likes · 1 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

Since you brought it up, I think the short version of what led to Trump is: 1) The disastrous presidency of George W. Bush, with a) a major war started by mistake, and b) a terrible financial calamity. 2) The politics of the Democratic Party and Barack Obama, who sent a strong 6.8K views · 54 likes · 5 reposts · 13 replies Open on X →

@ByronYork But none of these unusual opinions speaks to Talaricos character. Voters seem to be noticing that Paxton is irredeemably corrupt. For some GOP voters that is enough to keep them home. 1.2K views · 45 likes · 2 reposts · 5 replies Open on X →
