Breitbart: Breitbart Business Digest: How Trumponomics Can Reduce Inflation
The belief that a Republican sweep in elections would lead to higher inflation may be misguided. Historical data shows that inflation has often been lower during unified Republican control compared to periods of divided government. Politicians may be cautious about adopting inflationary policies due to voter discontent with rising prices.
Critics argue that immigration and tariffs contribute to inflation, but evidence suggests otherwise. Increased immigration has not historically led to inflationary pressures, and tariffs may not significantly raise prices. Instead, they could strengthen the dollar's purchasing power, potentially lowering prices.
