And last month:

'Trump was asked if his presidency would be considered a "failure" if he 
didn't deliver on his promise to slash Americans' food bills.

"I don't think so. Look, they got them up," referring to the 
Biden-Harris administration. "I'd like to bring them down. It's hard to 
bring things down once they're up. You know, it's very hard," Trump said.'
