The Times reported that consumers are expecting prices for goods to increase by roughly 3.5% annually over the next five to ten years, which would be the highest rate of increase since 1995. The Federal Reserve has also said it's unlikely to lower interest rates throughout the remainder of 2025, unless inflation rates drop back down to its target of 2%.

So when a husband[country] abandons his longtime family [the EU] to live more by himself[the USA] and the wife[the EU and
kids} have to reorganize to survive more by themselves[the EU] you praise the husband [trump/USA] for that.

That is utterly stupid. You seem unable to understand that our European allies are OUR first defense against Putin. Putin is not our friend. He may be Trump's best buddy, but that's obviously a personal thing between a pair of gangsters.
