Trump asked if he is concerned about latest inflation numbers. His answer: 'I love it'
President Trump expressed an unexpectedly positive view on recent inflation data, "loving" the rise in consumer prices despite it being the fastest annual pace in over three years.
He attributed the increase primarily to energy costs linked to the Iran conflict, claiming his administration's actions would stabilize oil markets and ease inflationary pressures.
