There was no context other than he said he thinks it will come down after the war ends.

It's been going up since early in his term, went up with the tariffs, and now is spiking for new reasons. All his doing.

And I've got news for people, a peace deal with Iran isn't going to lower inflation, there's price hikes baked in now that we won't realize for months or even until next year.
