Fox News reporter Peter Doocy effectively countered claims regarding the economy during President Trump’s tenure by presenting factual data.
Doocy highlighted the inflation rates, stating, “When you look at overall inflation for the first year of Trump versus Biden, Biden’s overall inflation was up 4.3%, significantly higher than Trump’s 1.6%. Groceries under Biden increased by 3.8%, compared to 1.3% under Trump.

Indeed, a Manhattan psychotherapist has confirmed long-held conservative beliefs: TDS is real, it’s spreading, and it’s negatively impacting the mental health of millions who struggle to accept Donald Trump’s existence.
In an interview on “The Faulkner Focus,” Jonathan Alpert, a prominent psychotherapist practicing in New York and Washington, shared that three-quarters of his patients exhibit what can only be described as a political obsession bordering on clinical impairment.
Alpert noted that within minutes of a session, many patients begin raving about Trump—not discussing policies or engaging in debate, but having an emotional breakdown.
In a compelling op-ed for The Wall Street Journal, Alpert termed this issue “obsessive political preoccupation.”
“I had one patient who couldn’t enjoy her vacation because she was triggered by seeing Trump on her device or in the news,” he revealed.
“Some of the symptoms of this ‘disorder’ include…”
