Based on the available data, Trump is not showing evidence of broadly lowering grocery prices. His team has pointed to some individual items that appear cheaper, but the bigger picture is that grocery prices were still up nearly 3% in April compared with a year earlier.

So if you mean overall grocery bills, the evidence points more toward prices still rising than being brought down. If you mean a few specific items, some of those may be cheaper at times. Critics also argue that his proposed administrative actions are unlikely to reduce supermarket bills for the average household.
