Is this the first of many campaign promises Trump will break?

Trump just admitted in an interview with Time magazine that it will be difficult for him to reduce consumer prices - contrary to statements he made on the campaign trail this year. I think this is the first of many campaign promises he will break – his tariff promises will be another one. Cheers!

    Canada also exports a lot uranium to the US and we have the largest deposits of uranium in the world. Trump doesn't seem to understand that both sides can play the tariff game. Cheers!

    “Prices will come down and come down dramatically and come down fast,” he said."
