Original Note:
These inflation claims are true, but also misleadingly cherry-picked. Annual inflation is 4.9% while the goal is 2%. Annual inflation of 4.9% or higher has occurred in 28 months total since 1993 (Clinton-now), including each of the last 24 months. https://www.bls.gov/news.release/cpi.nr0.htm https://www.federalreserve.gov/faqs/economy_14400.htm https://beta.bls.gov/dataViewer/view/timeseries/CUUR0000SA0, 12-month % change
