And so even though, again, even though things have gotten better under President Trump, in other words, not only are paychecks bigger, but they can buy you more, which is why, as you were saying, real median household income is up.
You know, for a lot of Americans, they still have not yet regained all the lost ground that they saw under Biden.

Will Cain: So let me just put this into real numbers so that I and perhaps the audience understand exactly what you're saying.
If your grocery bill went up 15% under Joe Biden, the fact that it's now only going up 3% doesn't inspire a lot of credit.
They're still paying 18% more than what they expected to be paying from the inflation baked in during the four years under Biden.
And this, even though wages are growing?

E.J. Antony: Exactly.
And I think the other thing that that has really left a kind of a bad taste in people's mouths, Will, is the fact that during the first year, really the first 14 months of this second Trump administration, we were making tremendous progress.
In fact, if you can believe this, the average American's weekly paycheck adjusted for inflation shrunk 4% under Biden from when he entered office to when he left.
But during Trump's first year, it went up 2%.
In other words, we clawed back half of the losses that we saw under Biden.
Again, this is the average American's weekly paycheck.
