The price of utilities are set at the local level. I live in the TVA energy district and it isn’t expensive compared to other areas. If you don’t like the price of energy under a pro energy president, what do you think energy prices will be under a Democrat president and Congress pushing green energy which is far more expensive. You will understand in a few years

PurpleCrush does not understand natural gas prices rise every winter due to increased demand. Kinda like gasoline prices are higher in the summer.

To him/her/it, the prices now are just a sign of failed energy policies.

Trump literally ran on lowering grocery prices

No one made him say he would lower prices, but he did. And people believed him and are pissed he didn’t do what he said he would do.

Inflation is an economic term that economists attempt to measure.

Affordability is a rather new political term that can’t be measured.

Uh, to lower prices on day one, for starters, he hasn't, and this is affecting his poll numbers now.



Vote Democrat then. That has always worked out so well.

If your feelings are hurt that bad over that particular statement to vote Democrat then you deserve all the economic benefits of a leftwing government. I hope they pass the absolute worst legislation possible from unfettered immigration to reparations because many American voters need to feel the pain of their stupidity

Yeah, he promised to get rid of the worst, and is failing at it.

Not children, people with no violent records in trying to remain legally, or fw American citizens.

the protesters won in MN as his poll numbers are terrible as he has retreated. He lost again.

Deportation of the 30 to 40 million Illegal Immigrants here would make costs of goods come down significantly but it’s nearly impossible to deport that many people. We have too many consumers who aren’t paying their fare share for just about everything.

Well, if you can get them to put the PS down and go outside to see daylight would be a start.

I drive down my streets and never even see children outside, much less working in a neighbor's yard.

I bet your kid won't even take out the trash
