Summary
An AP-NORC poll reveals skepticism about Donald Trump’s ability to lower costs like groceries, housing, or healthcare in his first year, with only 2 in 10 Americans expressing strong confidence. Confidence is slightly higher for job creation (3 in 10).
Even among Republicans, less than half are very confident in his ability to address healthcare or food costs.
Health care remains a weak spot, with only 16% of Americans confident he can lower costs.
Spoiler alert: He won’t do anything except enrich himself and his toadies.
And here I am, KNOWING he won’t lower prices, BECAUSE HE FUCKING SAID HE WASN’T GOING TO, AS SOON AS THE VOTES WERE IN!?¡
And yet millions voted for him claiming it was because he would fix the economy. 🤔
Too bad they didn’t think about it before voting.
Edit: I’d like to add that I will bet groceries for a month that they don’t go down at any point in his term.
If anything, he’ll print more money than is already the case and fuel inflation.
At this point I’m just hoping he doesn’t plunge us into The Great Depression 2: Electric Breadaloo
So great we stuck it to bLuEMaGa on that one single issue amiright single issue voters?
Lol, I don’t see how this won’t be significantly worse than that. In fact, when the economy is down, that’s when it’s the easiest for the richest people to enrich themselves further, buying companies, properties, and things when people are forced to sell for bottom dollar. And all those people are little baby birds chirping at big daddy trump to destroy the economy, so they can buy up everything, thinking they can recover the economy and eat astronomical profits.
That’s the plan anyway.
Ya know your comment reminded me that the great depression is what led to the New Deal which brought the most significant worker reforms and regulations in US history.
So maybe a Great Depression 2 would suck, but after we might get New Deal 2: Electric Healthcarealo so…there’s that
That’s very optimistic lol
Many Americans doubt Trump. End of statement.
Americans don’t doubt Trump. Fascists who voted for fascism but thought somehow they’d be ok doubt Trump.
People who voted for The Leopards Won’t Eat My Face aren’t Americans. Traitors to democracy to a one.
Kinda my point
Why reminds me that title of
Buy the foreign goods you want now folks.
It takes a little while for mismanagement to negatively affect the economy and the recession to take hold. Patience. He’ll get there.
He said so in an interview? Tho, not just the first year
Are you saying you believe what he says?
I do in this instance?
Are we not supposed to believe a politician backtracking on his election promises just after he won said election with them?
