Newsom Blames Trump for High Housing Costs Despite Chart Showing Sharp Increase Under Biden

Critics say the chart’s sharpest housing-cost increase came during the Biden years, not Trump’s, as California faces persistent rent and home-price pressure.

  • California Governor Gavin Newsom blamed President Donald Trump for high housing costs using a chart that also showed significant housing price increases during President Biden's term.
  • Critics and Republicans argue that housing affordability worsened under Democratic leadership at both the federal and state levels, citing policies, spending, and immigration as contributing factors.
  • Newsom has signed laws aimed at improving housing affordability in California, including reforms to streamline housing and infrastructure project reviews.
  • Newsom's messaging has faced criticism for appearing misleading, with opponents accusing him of deflecting blame, while supporters of Trump argue that his policies have effectively targeted housing affordability through executive actions and regulatory changes.
