Eric Swalwell, a U.S. Congressman representing California’s 14th district since 2013, recently took to social media to express his views on former President Donald Trump’s economic promises and actions during his presidency. Born in Sac City, Iowa, Swalwell has been active in politics for over a decade, having replaced Pete Stark in Congress. He resides in Livermore and holds degrees from the University of Maryland.
On March 3, 2025, Swalwell criticized Trump’s unfulfilled promise to lower prices immediately upon taking office. In a tweet posted at 01:26:37 UTC, he remarked on Trump’s frequent golfing activities and questioned how often Trump had visited grocery stores to assess price changes himself.
Later that day, at 16:02:01 UTC, Swalwell posted another tweet with the phrase “Trump slump!” accompanied by a link.
In an additional comment made at 20:10:14 UTC, Swalwell again questioned whether groceries had become cheaper since Trump assumed the presidency and whether Trump had personally checked supermarket prices.
