What is not being reported is that inflation was not only low during the Trump administration but it was TRENDING DOWN for half a year before he left office.

We can also see this in a White House chart that was released on Friday.

About half of the year-over-year headline inflation was due to energy, vehicle-related price increases, and pandemic-affected services. 21 percent was due to energy alone. 5/ pic.twitter.com/RtAlQ5VeHq
