About this episode
Chris Cuomo reacts to new inflation data showing consumer prices rose 4.2% in May—the highest level in three years—and explains why he believes the report could become Donald Trump’s biggest political problem. Cuomo responds to Trump’s claim that he “loves” the latest numbers and argues that voters care far more about what they’re paying for gas, groceries, housing, and everyday necessities than any political talking point coming from Washington.
Using the latest CPI report, Cuomo breaks down how rising energy costs, tariffs, and the economic fallout from the Iran conflict are putting pressure on consumers and small businesses. He explains why inflation has climbed back above 4%, why purchasing power matters more than stock market gains, and why he believes the midterms will ultimately be decided by one question: do Americans feel financially better off than they did before?
