There actually is a major “affordability” issue. It’s worldwide and obvious to everyone - except the author. Autos, energy, housing, insurance, groceries, labor, services, water, beef, ferilizer, equipment - nearly everything. But “let’s pretend” because the opposition exploits it.
It’s mainly due to currency devaluation and socialism, so not really Trump’s fault, though he’s a huge spender as well who doesn’t seem to grasp the issue.
Pretending a major problem doesn’t exist is foolish and gets us nowhere.
I agree, the inflationary rise in prices is largely due to the massive government spending on the global mass migration and on “green energy”. The leftists behind all all of this spent money they did not have and had to devalue their currencies. And here we are.
