Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent drew widespread criticism on November 23, 2025, for claiming inflation had not risen under the Trump administration and suggesting Americans could lower living costs by moving from blue to red states, a proposal dismissed as impractical and lacking evidence. 他所说的与持续增长的通货膨胀数据相矛盾, 包括4月至9月间的通货膨胀率从2.3%上升到3%, 并且被批评忽视了关税和供应链问题等系统因素. His remarks contradicted data showing sustained inflation increases, including a rise from 2.3% to 3% between April and September, and were criticized for ignoring systemic factors like tariffs and supply chain issues. 在政治上一致的经济顾问理事会的支持下,Besent的主张遭到了经济学家和公众的怀疑,他们强调他的声明与普通美国人的金融斗争脱节。 Bessent’s claims, backed by a politically aligned Council of Economic Advisers, were met with skepticism from economists and the public, who highlighted the disconnect between his statements and the financial struggles of average Americans.
