Trump's Davos Cost-Cutter Pitch Meets Reality Check

TL;DR Summary
Trump used Davos to push affordability across gas, housing, healthcare, and credit cards, but Business Insider’s data review finds limited real-world impact: gas prices aren’t consistently under $2 in most states, the housing-order targets a small slice of rentals, drug-price cuts depend on negotiations with limited current effect and ACA subsidies expired, raising premiums, and a proposed 10% cap on credit-card rates faces opposition and uncertain results. Overall, his claims don’t fully match the cost pressures most Americans face.
