To make people happy, I think it would take a return to a running average of 2%. This requires a temporary drop below 2%, perhaps even to 0 or negative. Otherwise, you're just telling them to suck it up and embrace the new normal.
I'm not an economist, but from what I've heard in the past, 2% is basically ideal. Price deflation or inflation that's too low can indicate problems with the economy. Maybe this situation is different since we had really high inflation a couple years ago. But either way, I think it's unlikely that prices will drop. Kamala needed to promise super low taxes on the working class or something to make up for it.
