Trump's take on the economy is "the argument you make when you’ve run out of economic arguments. You saber-rattle about foreign adversaries, and you wax poetic about a bygone period of American manufacturing," @owenslindsay1 told the @washingtonsun.
Since the start of Trump’s second term:
⚡️Household electric bills are up 16%
⛽️ Gas prices are soaring thanks to the war in Iran, and diesel prices have reached $6/gal nationally for the first time ever.
That’s the price Americans are paying for Donald Trump's corruption.
Whether fans are throwing hotdogs and burgers on the grill, frozen apps in the oven, or beer in the cooler, they’re in for higher prices on game day.
Many classic items have posted double-digit price hikes – in just the last year, thanks to Trump's tariffs.
We’ve only ever had 4 consumer sentiment readings below 50, all of them in 2026
America is plagued by a housing crisis.
The median U.S. single-family home price now runs more than $400,000. Young families are finding that suitable homes are scarce as a result.
Solution: Manufactured housing. Read about our bold proposal 👇
Trump keeps promising you a check. How many of those payouts have reached the public? Zero.
“American voters can add their $5,000 checks to the growing list of empty promises from the president," @ENPancotti told @washingtonsun.
Watching the game at home is no longer the affordable option it used to be.
Nearly 60% of sports fans said they’ve skipped watching a game in the past year because it was too expensive – which makes sense when getting full NFL access costs up to $900 a year.
This makes sense because you guys are developing and patenting technology that tracks how fast and jerkily users scroll to estimate how hungry they are and customize offerings to “user’s current mental state.”
Prob should knock it off!
Paychecks are growing, but not fast enough to keep up with inflation. Consumer prices are up 3.4% over the past year, compared with 3.1% wage growth.
Wage growth has slowed to its weakest pace since 2021, while inflation is still outpacing it
Trump spends his days padding his pockets, obsessing over plans to build monuments to himself, sleeping in meetings, and occasionally sending out fake announcements about illegal rebates.
No wonder gas is heading to $5 a gallon.
False promise number 16 won't be the charm.

Here's what I think about Trump's pledge to give everyone $5,000 if he wins the midterms:
It's as real as Trump's promise to lower costs on Day 1.

Remember the DOGE dividend?
In New York, tax opponents have repeatedly claimed – without evidence – that any new taxes on the wealthiest New Yorkers would cause tax flight.
Fact: NY added ~2,000 millionaire tax filers in a single year, shortly AFTER the state raised its top tax rate on high earners.
*Diesel prices hit an all-time record high, driving up the cost of trucking everything we buy, pushing prices even higher*
Trump: "It's ok, I'll never apologize. I did the right thing."
MAXXED OUT at $9.999!! GasBuddy data showing 5 stations in California that have hit the limit and are selling diesel at the dispensers highest possible price: $9.999/gal
