Per today's CPI report, Trump's war with Iran has caused an inflation bomb: Gas prices are up 27% compared to last year, airfare is up 23%, and fuel is up a jaw-dropping 52%. We are all paying the price for his warmongering.

Inflation eating up worker pay. Household debt and student loan defaults at a record high. 8 million people have lost healthcare the past year. Thousands have been sickened by disease outbreaks and contaminated food. Trump says, "Pretend I'm on the ballot" ahead of the midterms. Please do.
