Majority Of Republicans Now Say That Trump Has Increased Their Cost Of Living. 35% Job Approval Rating Overall For Trump.

[markef]

Well, they are feeling more costs today. They view Trumps economy as Bidens, few average Americans care about the stock market so Trump is looking like another Biden though at least Trump is providing some hope.

If I were Trump I would seek to investigate potential price gougers. That is very popular with citizens, especially on food.

Iran knows this cost of living issue is critical and he knows the midterms are vital which is why they are just holding out. I would bet my left arm that China is telling Iran to hold out and helping them hide stuff and/or arming them.

Of course President Xi will tell Trump differently. Just as Trump will tell him differently.

Right now the core issue is Iran and the closing of the Strait. The U.S should push for U.N involvement there, let France, the U.K and others back their words up regarding International Rule of law with some muscle in the form of ships.

Those who blame Trump and not democrats for economic woes in the US show their bias and ignorance.

Trump is in power now. He cannot refer to former administration other than Biden did when he blamed Trump for the inflation.

I mean he CAN state it, but it would only hurt his credibility and would not earn even one new vote.

Right or wrong, he has to work hard to try and address it.

Nice misogyny you have there.

Harris has a relationship with a divorced man, and she's a horrific slut.

Trump cheats on all three of his wives, buries one of them in the golf course, has sex with porn stars and Playboy models, has sexually abused dozens of women, and brags about grabbing women by the , and that is fine with you.

We could go on all day rehearsing all the sins of politicians on both sides of the aisle. I focus on other issues and support the candidates who convincingly show the best or most support for the will and Word of God.

Ignorance and low information drive the ill-informed or uninformed voter to think economic woes are the results of a current President of the US and not the result of decades of bad fiscal policies.

 

[JoeB131]

This issue could lead to the end of his term after the midterms. If they lost the house ormcongress, Trumps term is effectively over except as an arbiter of "sign or not sign" what they put in front of him.

Remember my warning when Trump won in 2024 that if he did not deliver, the replacement could be a far-left Marxist? His short term thinking is going to obliterate his own legacy.

Not sure why you thought Trump's second term was going to be better after his first one was such a disaster.

In short, as long as Trump tries to impose YOUR version of Christianity on the rest of us, you don't care what an awful human being he is.

Got it.

Keep your Bronze Age superstitions to yourself.

Well, this is why people like me said you need to cut government fat (he has in terms of government jobs) and cut the deficit and your debt.

Trumps BBB immediately ensured that inflation was going to be difficult to get under control. This allowed far less flexibility dealing with Iran now as gas prices increase and citizens WILL vote on this in the midterms.

He has perhaps accepted this fate. I am just surprised he is not as interested in his legacy. Much will be written about him either being an economic genius who brought jobs back, or, not reading the efforts of other countries to just obfuscate and delay so as to not have to invest in America and American jobs.

Except inflation was under control, Snidely.

Then he imposed idiotic tariffs and started a war that drove up the price of gasoline through the roof. (One place had it at 5.49 a gallon yesterday!!!)

Keep your Bronze Age superstitions to yourself.

Keep your naive, idealistic notions of socialism as our savior to yourself, history tells a different story.

Inflation was under control post tarriffs. It has risen now because of gas prices, which are temporary. It is well worth it to neuter Iran.

You can blame your blue state taxes for paying $5.49/gallon. Even now, I am paying $1.45/gallon less than that for the same product.

Sure it does. It shows that Civilization moves towards more socialism, not less. Always.

Entitlement programs are 65% of the Federal Budget, most of it going to middle-class white people to keep their oldsters from driving the family into poverty.

You guys need to run on eliminating Social Security and Medicare. Totally do it.

Or shut the hell up about "Socialism", because you just look silly.

Unlike unhappy leftist democrats I do not think Trump's first term was bad except for the non-stop democrat attacks on him and his supporters.

 

[Divine Wind]

You sound like Jussie Smollett, the SPLC, and Merrick Garland.

No doubt an anti-Constitution White Nationalist like you has all kinds of screwed up ideas. Sad.

Really?

1 Million dead from Covid
Riots in the streets
Highest unemployment in 80 years

Trump's first term was a disaster. His second term is going to be worse before it is over.

 

[Divine Wind]

Worldwide murdering terrorists may not be stupid in some sense, but they are fools for so carelessly and wickedly violating the will and Word of the King of Kings, The Lord Jesus Christ.

You talk the talk of being a Christian, but you don't walk the walk in following Jesus Christ.

You've broken both the Ten Commandments and Christ's commandments on this thread by spreading lies, hate and failing to open your heart to Jesus.

As long as Trump continues to show the most support for what is right compared to other candidates, he will continue to have my support.

40% - 50% of people don’t receive as back from SS or Medicare than they put in. That doesn’t count for compounding interest. For Medicare, it is close to 50%. For higher earners, it is a considerably higher percentage. SS is a progressive tax. Someone with a very high lifetime income will pay far more in payroll taxes than they receive in retirement benefits. Someone with a very low lifetime income will pay far less in payroll taxes than they receive in retirement benefits.

Democrats continue to run on the “rich” don’t pay their fair share, despite being patently false. Dotards believe it.

So what point does he damage the country so bad that you have to admit you made a mistake?

40% - 50% of people don’t receive as back from SS or Medicare than they put in.

Probably not true. If you live to be 72, you will get back everything you put into Social Security.

As for Medicare- One serious illness, and you'll have used up the 1% of your income you contributed over a lifetime.

The difference is unlike private insurance, they won't try to rip you off on coverage when you do get sick.

COVID was black swan event. It’s hilarious that you believe Biden, for example, would have avoided people dying from COVID and rises in unemployment. He sure couldn’t control inflation and yet you and others give him a pass because of COVID. Funny how that works.

As for the riots, those were dumb Democrats. Nobody can fix them.

Link? Any evidence at all?

I'm curious; is the reason they don't get back because they were anti-vaxxers who died of measles, COVID or STDs in their middle-age?
