Rather they acknowledged that it was an ongoing concern, and played in to the Republicans pinning it on their administration
Further, the idea of across the board tariffs helping anything is absurd
The economy was a key concern and they blew it. Spectacularly

Yeah, the inflation piece was strange. It was worldwide inflation; it was not specific to the US. We are all feeling it.
Trump saying no more inflation and saying he will tariff imports well ugh that is going to bring back inflation that is specific to the US.
When people say American voters are dumb, they really are.
