Trump was elected to right the economic ship and get prices down. He made it worse.


Worse than under Biden? Nah.

He also told us there would be a tough period, necessary to bring about long term gains and success. Gas prices were high for a few months, not a few years like under Biden. Two plastic bags of groceries didn't cost me $100 like they did under Biden. But I'm sorry you nerds didn't get everything restored to perfect and 100% of what you wanted 1.5 years into Trump's 4 year term. Condolences. Now enjoy the commies and commie policy you dipshits voted for as if it was a better alternative.

You know why? 'Cause they cheated them too. They've been doing this for a hell of a long time.

You mean right after coming out of the 2008 Great Recession under Bush

Blaming what happened in 2008 on just one President is very lazy and not intellectual at all. I bet you didn't even know what role BHO played in it.

The difference of then and now is because the “affordability” psy-op worked to perfection.

…were the highest they’ve ever been

Because the democrats have a 24/7/365 propaganda machine going all in for them in the national media.

The news has been slanted to the left for most of my life = but not so viciously as it has been since the advent of the Trump era.

That and the absolute failure of our educational system to require the development of individual analysis rather that 'asking google'

Other ills have resulted from that as wall = DEI and related nonsense being a leading failure of our culture.
