"Remember: Donald Trump ran for office saying he would lower costs on day one. Costs of groceries are up, cost of housing is up, cost of health care is up. He's passing a signature bill to throw people off their health care so he can do tax cuts for billionaires," Warren said, referring to Trump's "big beautiful bill."

"Democrats are the people who say billionaires actually should pay their fair share,' and that we need to focus on affordability for American families. And that's what we're fighting for."

"Trump's wrong. Prices are going up on just about everything.

"Government data, including from the Commerce Department this week, show that prices rose in June on items heavily exposed to tariffs, such as home furnishings, toys and appliances," The New York Times reported over the weekend.

That's Trump's Commerce Department. He may be trying to cook the books in other areas"notably by firing the federal official tasked with collecting (recently disappointing) jobs data"but he can't hide the fact that the economy is getting worse.

On Friday, a Morning Consult poll found that nearly two-thirds of surveyed voters blamed Trump for rising price s"a nd that nearly eight in 10 of them, including an astounding 70 percent of Republicans, believe Trump's tariffs will increase the price of everyday goods.

On Monday, an AP-NORC poll found that more than half of respondents were stressed about rising grocery prices"prices that are likely to continue to rise. Everywhere you look, voters are telling pollsters that they're stressed about skyrocketing costs."
