Coffee is up. Eggs are up. Gas is up. Everything seems to be going up.

[LilElf70]

Hmmmm.... I thought I was told by our con man chief saviour of humanity was going to fix all this shit his first week in office? So why is the price of EVERYTHING GOING UP? Hmmmm.... More lies? What is the real reasoning behind this lie.

Makes me wonder if he really knows what that means. (of course he does) Funny how many of his conned voters are now getting pissed about his inability to produce results he promised. Some, however, are making excuses. It's coming, its coming. blah blah blah. I find it strange that these type of people are the really hopeless people and still think Trump will fix it all.

Lies Lies Lies. And now he wants to buy out all federal employees? Seriously? I don't know how much more of these stupid, well crafted lies I can take. He really wants that dictatorship.

1. Everything is up except planes. Those are crashing

Epic Failure Administration

[Dem4life1234]

2. What the fuck is he good for?

The man makes good on his most evil promises but yet ones that are beneficial, he doesn't follow true.

What's he good for? Yeah, make America great again ...

He's already squandered Biden's growing economy. Has not even been a damn two weeks.

[LisaL]

8. Well, that was always a given.

Lowering prices was always an empty promise he couldn't possibly accomplish.

[Different Drummer]

16. And his diehard supporters fell for it.

[Justice matters.]

11. All the convicted felonious rapist traitor does is lie in front of cameras

Sign every fascistcutive order he has to ask miller what's in there...

Then go golfing at the expense of the taxpayers.

[Blue Owl]

3. Back in October, I remember seeing billboards in Wisconsin....

that were paid for and sponsored by the GOP, saying:

WANT LOWER PRICES? VOTE FOR TRUMP

how does it feel to be conned by the con man, you stupid dumb-ass fucks?

[Different Drummer]

17. They don't think about it.

They just buy into the lie that it's Biden's fault.

Keep it kicked, please

[Danascot]

5. I did that!

[pfitz59]

6. Not just going up

rocketing up! On steroids!

[LilElf70]

7. He's one hell of a liar

Every day, over and over, until people believe it.

[Bengus81]

9. Lumber from Canada will be going up 25% or MORE...

That's just the tariff, factor in the GREED and it goes up 35%. That will do absolute wonders for the building industry along with Trump, and P2025 wanting to end the home mortgage interest tax write off.

I've seen what stupid shit can do to crash that industry. I went through it during the Reagan years.

[Aussie105]

12. Lumber up, you pay more.

The tariff gets paid by the importer, but it really is money out of the buyer's pocket.
The tariff goes straight into government coffers - the same coffers Trump considers his own to do with what he wants.

It will strangle the economy, driving consumer prices up like that.

[NoCashAvailable]

22. Fires Ca.

What will it cost to rebuild with new tarrif prices ?

[Justice matters.]

10. Destroy it all for his oligarchs and soon after for putin to take over.

With nobody left to operate a response in time...

That 'may be' the final triumph putin and kim jung and xi to rule the world.

[Humane human]

13. while he's working hard to bring our country down

What were 46% of the American people thinking when they selected this chaotic calamity?

[LetMyPeopleVote]

15. Welcome to DU

[Grammy23]

14. Not everything is up.

The DOW just dropped 300 points at the news about tariffs on the way — very, very soon. Yes, HE did that.

[Intractable]

18. The purpose of his tarrifs is to be threatening to other countries while raising the prices we in the US pay for goods.

He wants to bankrupt all of us.

[LilElf70]

19. And make his buddies richer.....

Imagine, knowing what we know now, the sinister laugh he must have had when he won?

[Aussie105]

20. I think . . .

the day Trump 2.0 was inaugurated, marked the point when America could no longer consider itself a first world country.

It will be a day marked on calendars for ever more, as the day of ultimate infamy.
It will be commemorated yearly with sackcloth and ashes, dirge music on all TV and radio stations, with gangs of people engaged in self-flagellation roaming the streets.
Coffins will be paraded on the streets. The words 'Democracy' painted on their sides.

Crowds will gather at the gates of the White House intending to throw rotten eggs and tomatoes but alas, the shops were bare.

Calendars will be printed with a thick black border around that date, and people will lament 'Oh why, why did we let this happen?'

Much was lost that day. More than anyone could have imagined.

[Jit423]

21. Everything going up except the creditability of our new administration. nt
