Affordability is not just about prices/inflation. Its about wage stagnation, increasing employer demands, precarity, and impossible societal models that don't work in healthcare, childcare, higher education, retirement, transportation. The crisis of affordability is a crisis of livability.

Now he's in favor of legislation to force the release of the files that he is blocking the release of, which he could just have released if he were so inclined. Its this sort of thing that leads to deflationary Trumpism.

Oligarchs are wholesale reshaping economy and society and now culture rather than democratic polities. This is the real coup. We have no say at all in what the future will look like.

Even MAGA long for a society of consensus, an end to interminable culture wars; you can hear it in their present wager that a society of consensus can simply be imposed. They lack the personal, cultural, and political skills necessary to seek after true consensus. So only tantrums.
