Core CPI was 2%

 Whereas the above notes that the promise is a CPI of 0.1%/year
 Of course, the promise made back in August was even lower:
 “From the day I take the oath of office, we’ll rapidly drive

come down. You just watch. They’ll come down fast.”

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.'
