Bloomberg News editor Wes Kosova argues that high fuel costs undermine Trump’s upbeat economic message before the midterms. He says gasoline prices are up about 39%, without specifying the comparison period. The discussion puts the proposed $5,000 Trump dividend at about $1 trillion and describes a proposed $8 billion farmer diesel credit; funding remains unclear. Kosova argues small relief measures may have limited or delayed effects against global energy-supply pressures, and promises of cheaper fuel depend on an uncertain end to the Iran war.
