Greene rips Trump's economy: 'MAGA used to call this Biden inflation'

Marjorie Taylor Greene opened a sharp critique of Trump’s handling of the economy, declaring the nation ‘IN DECLINE’ as inflation climbs. The latest Labor Department data show the annual CPI at 4.2% over the prior 12 months, with a 0.5% rise in May—the first monthly gain above 0.4% in months. Greene mocked the administration’s messaging, arguing MAGA once labeled this Biden inflation and accusing the White House and Trump allies of policies hurting ordinary Americans. She posted the remarks on X and linked rising prices to the Iran policy and broader foreign policy choices. Her broader critique highlights intra‑party tensions over inflation messaging amid midterm politics.
