There was no trick.... None at all...

Food is high AF right now. So are building materials And housing.... It was costing me $100 in gas just to drive to work. And our Diesel Truck was up to $175 a fill up

Then a war we wasn't winning after we got a deal, then another deal, then another deal, then another deal... Business was down at work and across the nation. People weren't spending or they were afraid to.

Had nothing to do with Democrats... But a screw up by Trump and the GOP.
I voted straight Republican because I think that Democrats are scum, pure filth... But it didn;t make any difference.

I saw it coming and predicted this before the election.

75% dem victories throughout Nation.

Have you forgotten the economists and media telling us how good the economy was under Biden?

Well if it was good then, why aren't similar numbers good now?

So are building materials And housing..


yeah after covid exploded...... i deal with real estate and i saw it first hand.

again, you aint getting homes vehicles, or insurance down to what we want.

healthcare costs people way more than any gas.

gas was the same roughly back in 2008. people would really be crying if that shite went up like all other goods. it would be 20 a gallon.

average gas was lower under trump than biden

Yeah people are just imagining they are going into debt and can’t afford anything.

People going into debt and being unable to afford the lifestyle they lead is a constant. Democrats convincing everyone there was an affordability crisis was new.

Did you know credit card debt as a percentage of GDP is down from 2 years ago? Nobody is going into debt to afford their lifestyle that wasn’t going to do it regardless of who was in office.

I hate the left, but I see nothing wrong here. They didn't "trick" anybody. They had a playbook and ran with it. Is a fake punt in football cheating because they played the other team for a fool? If they didn't break the law, then I guess you need to STFU whining and figure out how to win. Republicans are worse than pathetic.

Trump and the Republicans didn't fulfill their promises. The Democrats didn't have to trick anyone. This was a vote against Republicans, not for Democrats.

No tricks needed. The yellow wing of the Republican Party takes their ball and goes home at the slightest bit of adversity.

More like the people who vote for Democrats are stupid and easily duped.

These young people who go to college now think they are so smart. Yet, these professors give them "A"'s for writing a paper that says "how bad a person Trump is".

So what are you saying... That we atart paying people $25 or $30 per hour so they can have a living wage? Won't happen.

You still have wages where they were in 2019 with 2026 post covid prices... Not to mention diesel been up to almost $7 a gallon for about 3 months. That ain't helping food costs.

But we got a deal, we got a deal.

And as for people spending... I don't give a crap what the posts and charts and polls show... I know cause I live it. Spending is down, and Hispanic populations were even afraid to get out and about.

$50 is a lot of money to folks and it's barely fills one bag of food at the store. In fact $50 wouldn't even give me half a tank of gas.

Trump and the GOP got a little sidetracked thinking that the whole USA was happy.... Some of my longtime friends and diehard trump supporters were even upset with him and loosing faith.

People voted Biden out because they wanted better.. Well Trump didn't deliver. His second term wasn't that grand.

I call BS on that chart... Why...

Because if I spend $50 on food that costs me $20 just a year ago... You can bet that this info alters the chart.

And then this little tidbit right here.

quote:

Food and housing together account for nearly 47% of total household spending—the highest share in 15 years


So if just food and housing are making up for most of the people spending, then I don't think that they are out buying a new boat.

Let me tell you.. I know we got lots of rich and educated folks on here. I am not one.. I am on a lower level of income so I know what's going on with people around me.

Trump and the GOP just did not deliver... It wasn't that people came out in defense of gays or Hispanics... It's because they wanted lower prices. and it didn't happen. and also Trump and his mouth were his own worst enemy.

This ting with Iran is more concerning with common folk than you might realize.
