I doubt it will be as easy or effortless to lower just about any prices as he tries to make it sound. I hope he manages it, I think most people do. But that isn't my point. I take issue with the way they present the story. With the headline and subtitle, they make it sound like he's given up on lowering prices, which isn't true. Most people only read the headlines of articles - the entire thrust of their argument is in the first four paragraphs, and the rest doesn't have that much to do with it. It wouldn't have been as egregious if the headline simply read "Trump admits it will be 'very hard' to lower prices."
