When it comes to inflation data, the numbers can be misleading or easily framed in a more positive or negative light for anyone who doesn’t fully understand them. That’s exactly what the White House learned this week when a post about Karoline Leavitt’s affordability comments drew a community note on social media.
Leavitt’s Affordability Comments
In an interview with Fox News this week, Leavitt highlighted and praised the President Donald Trump‘s administration for several accomplishments. The comments came ahead of Wednesday’s inflation data.
"Thanks to President Trump and Republicans and common sense policies across the board, our country is safer, our country is more affordable," Leavitt told Fox News.
A clip of the interview was shared by MediasTouch Senior Digital Editor @acyn on X. That post received a Community Note for being misleading.
