Friday: Trump Loves the Inflation. Your Wallet Doesn't.

Friday, June 19 — the President of the United States said "I love the inflation" on the same day CPI hit 4.2%, a three-year high, and Rush and Reagan are not letting it go quietly. This episode breaks down the May CPI print and what is actually driving the headline number versus core inflation. It traces the tariff-to-price pipeline — how retailers spent 2025 absorbing costs and are now passing them to consumers in 2026. It dissects Marjorie Taylor Greene's CNN appearance where she called Trump's remark a "punch in the gut" and what that signals about base tolerance, not just media optics. And it works through the real political math for swing-district Republicans six months from November. The closing argument is the sharpest part: what a principled conservative accountability case actually looks like — separate the two inflations, demand a real policy timeline, and stop treating CPI as a political prop. Rush's final line reframes Trump's quote as a confession. Watch the Section 122 tariff expiration on July 24th — that is the next real fork in the road. Weigh in after you listen.
