Trump critics launch new group to highlight rising costs
- A bipartisan group critical of President Donald Trump is launching the Cost Coalition in early 2025 to highlight rising costs under his presidency.
- This effort follows Trump's early struggles to control inflation and rising prices amid a global trade war launched soon after his second term began.
- The Cost Coalition plans to amplify its message before important elections in Virginia, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania by utilizing paid advertisements, social media outreach, press engagements, and in-person gatherings involving entrepreneurs, military veterans, and religious organizations.
- Inflation reached 3.6% in the first quarter, well above the Federal Reserve's 2% target, while grocery prices rose 2.4% year-over-year and gas prices fell 10%.
- The Coalition, led by veteran operatives from both parties with seed donations from large donors, will form a nonprofit hybrid PAC that will not fully disclose funding sources.
