[Vance Says Trump Administration is Working to Lower Prices and Drug Costs] In response to voters' questions about why they shouldn't blame Trump for economic problems, US Vice President Vance stated that the government is taking steps to lower prices and the cost of living. He said that if people believe inflation and affordability are issues, the Trump administration is doing everything it can to lower prices, and criticized Democrats for wanting to raise taxes. Vance stated that the Trump administration's "TrumpRx" program covers nearly 800 drugs, calling it one of the largest reductions in drug costs in 60 years. He also criticized Democrats for "not taking action" previously, saying that if Democrats were in power, they would reverse these policies, while the Trump administration would continue to strengthen related measures to further reduce prescription drug prices. Vance stated that the Trump administration's goal is to ensure that measures to lower inflation continue to work, and accused Democrats of potentially canceling these efforts.
