"The conservatives on here denying the affordability crisis are engaged in what I can only describe as an act of political suicide. They're also lying, which is the worst part. Grocery prices are up. Housing. Energy. Insurance. Health care. Basic living expenses. It's real. It's happening. Denying it just makes you look out of touch, deceitful, and untrustworthy. It's also a completely unnecessary and unforced error. No credible person is claiming that Trump caused these price surges. You don't have to disgrace yourself by denying the reality in front of your face just to prove your loyalty to Trump. The causes for the most part are multi faceted, complicated, and longstanding. That's true. So let's discuss them. Debating whether the problem exists at all -- or, if it does exist, whether it counts as a problem -- is a total waste of time, and makes you look like a shill and a fraud."

This is a one dimensional conversation. It’s due to those who point out prices are high currently, but ignored the same high prices when Sleepy was president. Besides trying to stop Iran from building a nuclear bomb subsidized by obama and biden. Trump is also securing the U.S. $ in many ways that some here won’t understand so I won’t explain the economics. Do your homework before you throw stones at the wrong president.
Nobody ever talks about Affordable Government. Isn’t that part of the cost of living in America?
Well, under Trumps first term things were pretty OK given Obama trying to destroy the country for 8 years.
Then four years of Biden letting millions of the third world in while trying to destroy the country with Covid. They basically destroyed business and threw millions out of work for the duration.
Now Trump is in his second year of term two (or term three depending on what you believe) and thanks to the tariffs and all the new business Trump has been able to bring into the country business is booming. As bad as it is if Trump had not made all these moves it would be a lot worse.
Now this Iran conflict is retarding the progress. When the price of oil comes down the price of everything comes down. Getting rid of all these cockroach illegals will bring down rents and housing prices are already dropping at least in Atlanta.
Its all the Democrats/communists fault! 😉
Yes, there are freeloading immigrants, legal and illegal by the millions. This is madness. Only immigrants who can support themselves (either through work of wealth) should be admitted.
Getting rid of 10 million border jumpers will put a lid on inflation.
Trump + All his predecessors after Reagan.
* 30+ Trillion Big Un-Beautiful Signed Government Bills.
* For the Exempt Ones.
* Exempt Healthcare
* Exempt salaries and benefits above the price effects
* Hard Soviet communist - fascist all the way.
* Hooverville. Sweat and Millstone for the Masses. ✖️
It’s getting harder and harder to tell Matt Walsh from Alex Jones.
Doom and gloom rants don’t solve problems.
No President can lower prices. ask Nixon.
You nailed it. My most expensive item is federal income taxes, more than cost of (food+housing+health+entertainment) combined.
“Established his reliability”? To what? or who? The only reliability that really matters is to the truth, and nothing he says here isn’t factual.
You couldn’t be more correct.
See 3 just below your 2.
The most ignorant of voter knows voting for a Democrat to make life more affordable is a joke.
Neither does ignoring them.
Prices are up on everything due to gouging oil prices are way down yet gas prices are up another link in the chain.
TDS is the biggest excuse from his first year in office.
Exactly right. If people knew how much of our tax dollars are being given to illegals in the form of subsidized or "free" everything, or to others via fraud, maybe they'd wake up and join the calls to DEPORT THEM ALL.
Instead of striving for constant inflation, the fed should strive for a relatively short period of deflation, if that’s even possible.
The war was over in March. All our objectives were achieved. We should not be there yet Trump insists on staying there to cause more damage.

I’ve seen you brag about this before. You see all those lawyer billboards and tv ads around?
You better pray you never have an incident on your property or have an at fault wreck. They will take that house from you in a heartbeat.
The main reason I do insurance is for liability, not to protect the property itself. If we had tort reform of any significance, I would choose to self insure as well.
You’re totally exposed to those vultures. I have an Umbrella policy also.
To prevent millions of Americans from dying in a nuclear attack by a fanatical religious regime it is worth it. Even if the victims will likely be New Yorkers and Washington DC residents.
12% my @$$. More like 100%. That 12% is just more lies coming out of that horrible regime.
