After Trump is elected and everything doesn't magically cost what it did in 2019

What happens after that? Say it's a year or two into his second term and people are still paying 1200 in rent per month for a single-wide instead of 700 per month like they were in 2019. Grocery prices don't magically revert back to 2019 prices and used cars don't cost what they did in 2019. Contractors are still griping about hot much crap costs at Lowes.
It's inevitable. Too many uninformed voters are voting for Trump in hopes that he's an economic genie and political savior, even though runaway cost of living is a global problem and not just an American problem. But I guess Trump, of all people, is going to come in and wave his hand like a jedi and start barking out orders and everything magically will go back to 2019.
Basically the only way that the cost of living and the market basket of goods goes back to 2019 prices is a second Great Depression. It's like beliving in the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy, but that's what a lot of undecided and uneducated voters are voting for Trump on.
After that the honeymoon will be over, and people will be griping that Trump didn't deliver. If history is any indicator, that's when Trump will double down and claim that it's the Federal Reserves fault that crap doesn't cost what it did in 2019 again and the Deep State and the Swamp and the Illuminati and the Cabal, all of whom are conspiring against Trump to not make the cost of everything not great again.

My gripe is more about how too many Americans believe in Political Saviors and there's no such thing as a political savior. Cost of living is jacked up in every OCED/first world country on earth. The brightest political minds and policymakers in nerd countries like Japan and China and Germany and the Scandanavian ones can't figure it out, but somehow Donald frigging Trump is going to come in and make the cost of everything great again.

You’re the only one making the particular assertion that you’re also lambasting.

Its rare to observe these nature, but thankfully our TigerTracker cameras have caught one in action.
Here: we witness a proud male with a testerone count of 1 unit proclaiming that Trump will only make the economy ‘slightly better’.
Now we have to empathize, that during heat, his mental prcoesses are not fully functioning.
He can only focus on one thing.
His borders and security do not matter to him. Nor does the condition of his rivals. He has only one goal mind. Deapite the obvious advantage to hunting with the rest of his pack - This male has chosen to be an oddball, an outcast.
I am no professional, but i assume that he died of disentary on his first playthrough of the Oregon Trail.

Supreme Court…..at least keep it somewhat conservative for the rest of my life. That’s basically the reason I vote

Sad that people like this vote
That single-wide wouldnt be $1200 had Trump been re-elected
So what you are going to get with Trump back in office, is to keep that from going to $1700 by 2029. While Trump is easing economic stress thru energy policy, global war funding, entitlements to illegals, and interest rates
Ya know just like he did last time

I don't doubt that that there are millions who think Trump = lower prices.
But that's an incredibly reductive and dumb line of reasoning to try to sell all Trump voters.

All it will take is for Trump to reinstitute his energy policies and kill any Green Energy deals abroad. Keystone goes back into action.
Energy producers are no longer hindered by red tape and their production costs plummet.
People have zero clue how much fuel costs can hamper an economy.

Well you have a cool username, I'll give you that. Could be a nice name for a rock band. Consider this on your point:
We have billions of our tax dollars funneled out to "struggling countries" via the UN and our "commitments" to furthering a NWO. Cutting the strings, now what do we have?
Undoing the "green new deal" type policies that reward unsustainable "renewable resources" will reinstate some of our monies. Shutting down the war machine, which Trump already did during his time as "acting commander in chief" would save some money. Now what do we have?
Shutting down big pharma and their annual raping of our tax dollars, unfair subsidies, and lawfare preventing us from questioning their bad decisions, not to mention, pushing chemicals our bodies don't need because of high pressure NGOs and corruption at the WHO, NIH, and FDA levels. After that, now how much money do we have?
Obama said it best, "what kind of magic wand do you have?"
The answer is one that kills the central bank and global deep state market grasp of what we are capable of earning. Living in a fiat currency is where your mind is trapped. None of us signed up for this.

so you're saying don't vote for Trump because he might not fix the cost of living?
so we can keep Biden in office, who not only jacked up inflation, but also spearheaded efforts to FCK the US through 16 other avenues.
SMART.

At this point I'll settle for not getting vaporized.

Nothing. But prices of goods and services will stabilize once we are not importing oil again. . . . that is until another administration comes in and devalues the dollar again.
