Trump Looks for Way to Lower Prices in Final Moments
On the eve of the mid-term elections, Trump is facing the increasing pressure of living expenses; The increase in the price of gasoline, diesel and meat, even in Republican states, has increased the fear of the defeat of this party.
At the same time, he defends the high price of fuel as a small price for confronting Iran, and with limited measures such as diesel tax exemption and temporary increase in meat imports, he tries to reduce the economic pressure on the voters.
In the field of science and health, the Trump administration is also changing direction: focusing more on artificial intelligence, reducing the budget and manpower of scientific institutions, and supporting controversial medical approaches.
Critics warn that undermining the existing scientific infrastructure and focusing too much on artificial intelligence could undermine America's scientific superiority in favor of China; In the field of health, the approach of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has raised concerns about vaccines and peptides undermining trust in science and increasing unsafe products.
All in all, Trump is redesigning America's scientific and health policies while trying to curb the pre-election livelihood pressure; Such an approach can create significant political and scientific costs in the long run.
