If voters don’t feel relief, the economy isn’t fixed

[Hollie]

I never said it was a bad thing. I’m just saying it may not be reasonable to expect it to return to that level.

Correct, it’s not reasonable to expect inflation under Trump to be anywhere near the rates achieved by the pretend president, ole’ Stumblebum.

 

[Marener]

Look at what you cut and pasted, late in 2023 vs. our entering 2026. Inflation is clearly cooling.

pretty hard to credit Trump when there’s no appreciable difference after he took office. 2024 and 2025 are basically the same. 2023 was still kind of hot.

I did try to debate the issue with you, but it seems like it’s not worth either of our time.

Voters aren’t watching charts and graphs. They’re watching their bills. If families still feel squeezed, no amount of economic spin will matter in 2026.

If voters don’t feel relief, the economy isn’t fixed​

The concerns of many Americans about their economic well-being may be at the highest level since the Great Depression. Politico recently reported that 46% of Americans say their cost of living is the worst that they can remember, including over one-third of Trump voters. Nothing better exemplifies this than the many “30-somethings” who are unable to purchase a home.

Financial anxieties center around affordability, which is the proxy for evaluating whether the economy is meeting the public’s needs. Affordability is the degree to which households can responsibly pay for essential goods and services.

Gregg Ip, an economic commentator for the Wall Street Journal, says that affordability cannot be measured solely by economic data, but must also account for perceptions of financial security.

President Trump opined that concerns about affordability are a “hoax” created by Democrats for political purposes. Most Americans would disagree. While the runaway inflation of the Biden presidency has moderated, widespread concerns about affordability persist. According to a recent Politico poll, nearly half of the nation found the cost of their groceries, health care, utilities, and housing to be unaffordable. About half of the respondents said food costs are difficult to manage, and more than a quarter skipped medical appointments because of the cost.

In the 2026 midterm elections, it will be incumbent upon Republicans and Democrats to make an affordability agenda “job one.” These agendas should be the yardstick voters use to cast their vote for members of Congress and state officials.

I disagree. All the Left has to do is continue to destroy the US from within with spending like a drunken sailor, while "fixing" everything by trying to give away even more things as "free".

But as we all know, or at least should, nothing is ever free. The price for continuing to offer "free" things is a cost voters never reckon on paying.

And for Trump to say that the hurting economy is a hoax is not helping him. No, it is the exact opposite.

And yes, under Biden unaffordability hit new record heights as the DNC contributed to much of it, but Trump is President now and must fix it overnight or meet a horrible fate in the midterms.

For the Left, they could not be happier as they will see both Trump and a free market collapse altogether.

That was always the goal.

U missed the part where liberal democrats create their own reality of misery. They're not happy unless they're miserable

Democrats - OMG!!! WORST ECONOMY EVER!!! TTRRRUUUMMMPP!!! AAAUUUGH!!!!!!!!!!

Democrats lie.
It's all they do.

 

[beagle9]

Irrelevant to the point.
Point is Democrats, and their media have been doing everything they can to say the economy is sooo bad now
It isn't.
Are there underlying conditions that are worrisome? Hell yes, but they are the same underlying issues that has been building since the early 2010s.

They just can't believe that we see them for who and what they are, but as long as they think that they can easily control the message right on with their left leaning partisan MSM platforms, then they will not stop until their fat lady sings.

 

[rightwinger]

Nonsense. Typical leftist slogans. Low inflation. Rising GDP and a rising stock market benefits all Americans.

Yet when asked…people claim they are struggling
Just like they were under Biden when they bought into Trumps and the Republican Congress’ promise of a remedy.

Trump has moved on and shows no inclination to provide relief.
The Republican Congress has not advanced a single bill

Republicans will have to answer in 2026

“We all knew”?

Ha, bullshit. The timeframe from when we will see improvement in the economy is always 6 months from now. In July 2026, the mantra will be “we will see results in January 2027.

Who is we ????? Me and my wife, uhhhh we are living the great life (we earned it), and you know why that is ? Because we didn't follow a leftist twisted liberal crazy acting herd off of the cliff over and over again.

We worked hard and long, and it paid off in dividends.

What you knuckleheads are constantly advocating for, is basically for people like me and my wife or any other hard working couple and working families in America to pay our hard earned tax dollar's or hard earned wealth to your favorite BS programs in hopes to bail out your terminally dependent Democrat crybabies (who never made a good decision in your entire lives).

The gig is up lefty, and your world as you knew it is crumbling down fast, and it's about damned time.

Doge findings should have you people hiding your heads in shame, especially in front of the American people, but just like Tim Walz you have no shame.

Give it up already !!!
