As Trump floats through a fantasy economy only he can see, Americans are crushed by prices, chaos, and a president too delusional to notice the country slipping beneath him
Remember when he said girls 👧 can go without barbies? He's always attacking females of any age. You never hear him say boys can go without their trucks or dinosaurs 🦕, or hot wheels, etc. He's a piece of shit. He needs to be removed and his entire fascist corrupt autocratic regime. They've all committed treason.
That's among all the other crimes he's committed in this term already here at home and internationally. Everyday he does something that convicts him for impeachment.
MAGA, the national economic statistics show that you folks are getting hit the most by Trump's inflation. We all know that everyone from time to time makes mistakes, are you ready to admit to this one, and do something in yours and your loved ones best interest? Please join the rest of the working class in calling for his impeachment before it worsens.
Have to keep fighting each day,, all day and every day...........
Look forward to the Trumpenburg Trials when Orange Hitler and his Nazi regime will face charges of treason, aiding the enemy, traitor, crimes against humaniy........the list is endless.
TacoTits is into sloppy seconds..........Melania was playing hide the wennie with Epstein before Cankles ended up with her.........Putin knows all this.....thats why Russian TV shows all the Melania lesbo-porn outakes .........as long as Bubba is around......or a a micophone needs a blow job...........
Price gouging was going on under Biden, but under Trump it's runaway. Seriously if you can find a place to buy food other than a corporate grocer, see the difference. Oh prices for many things will still be higher, but I can walk out of the store where my neighbors who immigrated here shop, and get $150 of food for $67. See what alternatives you have around you.
Prices are high for many reasons, like it isn't ranchers that set beef prices - it's corporate meat packers. But in general where I get produce I do well at my locally run store, because the people shopping there don't have a lot of spare change, and you haven't lived until you've head someone try to overcharge and their customers giving them hell in another language lol. Oh I'm still paying those tariffs on imported food, but it's not the price gouging I get at Kroger or Publix.
In the meantime, "Trump" negotiated a "peace deal" about Ukraine... WITHOUT Ukraine, and without all the countries of the coalition that is defending it.
Within four days from now, Ukraine needs to accept it, WITHOUT any negotiations, if not the US will allow the war to become much worse and let Putin, THE enemy of the free world, take huge chunks of Eastern Europe.
Here's how a foreign newspaper cartoon summed up the situation: Europe accepts Putin's peace deal, on the condition that it gives the US back to Europe.
His "deal" about Gaza was the same. Hamas wasn't involved, so there was the typical prisoner/hostages swap that they do over there once in a while, and that's it. Israel immediately continued the bombing, and now Hamas explicitly said that for them, nothing changed so there is no peace deal at all, they continue to fight back. Obviously.
Trump is BAD at deal making. It's all fake. Photo-ops is all he does.
He’s a narcissist who has to be the face of the news 24/7 lying his ass off. I read after Charlie Kirk’s death he was jealous of all the news coverage he was getting so he made up a bunch of lies to get the news back on him.
He isn't. Foreign newspapers have shown how the English of the Ukraine proposal is "off" and only makes sense if you assume it was literally translated from Russian.
So it's Putin who WROTE the damn thing, and then hired some lousy translators who translated it into English.
That's why it's just a document containing everything Putin ever wanted, and that's it.
There are no negotiations at all.
Trump simply sent Putin's document to Zelensky and that's it.
Europe now sent Trump its own proposal, so NOW the negotiations COULD begin (although I doubt Trump will be interested in doing so, and Putin is definitely not).
Really he is supposed to say thank you to Trump who is nothing but Putin’s puppet. Russia invaded Ukraine without provocation because murderous thug Putin wanted to start recreating the USSR - under himself of course. So
in what universe should Ukraine cede any territory to Russia. Only in the universe where Putin has dirt on a totally unfit corrupt president of the USA who in turn is blackmailing Zelensky.
Ukraine has denounced the bullshit peace deal in a speech by Zelensky at the EU, and in large scorned him for it, but Ukraine is standing strong against anything that takes their sovereignty and territory from them. In this week's reporting on Ukraine forces, Ukraine is taking it to Russian territory with huge successes. Blew up a huge underground munitions and communications facility behind Russian lines yesterday. Long live Ukraine.
I'm surprised Scott Bessent is not telling the people to get multiple roommates. He already said move to a Red state. This Administration has no clue what America is going through. People are skipping meals and sacrifices are being made to stay alive.
It's because he's a delusional psychopath. He's a compulsive liar and in complete denial. Unfit to remain as president. None of his administration is fit to run this country.
Fall Of Cheeto’s Arrogant Roman Empire Occurred From Within
In America this time the fall will be related to the very wealthy billionaires Part of this decline is the willingness of the Nazi billionaires through Cheeto to rig the elections so that the “other” people don’t have a say in governing And this fits perfectly what Cheeto and RFK Jr are saying in voicing the Nazi/GOP talking points The wealthy superior class and the King should dominate and rule the inferiors or unworthy working class Cheeto wants to rule over the people, not serve them
But let’s face it This has always been the “let them eat cake” attitude of the Nazi/GOP uberwealthy who have been drawn to control the masses People like Musk and his South African buddy Theil have advantaged themselves at the expense of the taxpayer but have this superiority complex that has always fit the Nazi/GOP talking points Cheeto lied to the electorate to get into office by telling them that “he was the savior for the working class” Remember his rust belt promises and then there was “bringing down prices on Day One”
The electorate bought his lies and now there’s liar remorse and has led to French Revolution 2.0 21st century American style Off with their Nazi/GOP heads!!! WE the People say
Even though he may never be arrested for his crimes, He will suffer. His Dementia will numb his understanding the Cruel hurt he has done. Nobody loves him. He will be hated for all time. That's Karma.
When I read this, I was thinking how much of the Meidas mighty gets it. The ones who need to open their minds, for their own good, they won’t get it. Not until it’s too late I’m afraid. Hindsight is 20•20.
Stephen Miller tells DJT the facts , we know Donald doesn't read. Miller manufactures everything and gives the orders. I believe he ordered Epstein and Kirk to disappear.
He was working with Epstein to repair Epstein's image as a sex criminal before Epstein's arrest and knows information about the connection to tRump and others. He is in many video's talking with Epstein about saying tRump would be worried that they were talking to each other. Bannon is saying now that he and many others would be going to prison if Democrats take back control of congress. There is damming information coming out with the release of the Epstein files. People who crime together share exposure.
I'm confused Michael, you say inflation actually is down from last year under Biden. I've heard it's actually up another 3% since then...as in added to the existing inflation when Trump took over!
And what makes you say Thanksgiving is 5% cheaper than last year? Are you basing that on the misleading Walmart ad? Looks to me Thanksgiving is actually MORE this year compared to last year. Please tell me where you are getting your numbers/information from?
In June 2022, inflation was at 8.9% under Biden but by the time he left office it was 2.9%. Due to his policies that trickled into 2025, inflation got as low as 2.4% in May 2025. But then Trump's tariffs began to be infused into the economy so June and July were 2.7%, August was 2.9 and Sept was 3.0%. October is 2.96%. Prices for everyday goods increased 2.68% overall from same time last year.
The Fed likes to see inflation at around 2.00%. That is healthy growth without economy killing inflation.
Someone above mentioned that once prices are up, they rarely go down even when the underlying reason for the price increase goes away. In general, that's true because why lower the prices when you can make more money by keeping them the same when the wholesale price is now lower. Sometimes prices will drop, such as the price of eggs did once the bird flu thing improved.
the thanksgiving thing is something trump pulled out of his ass, stating that Walmarts 2025 Thanksgiving basket is cheaper than last year. What he fails to mention is last year the basket had 21 items that were all brand names. This year's basket has 14/15 items that are all Walmart generic brand.
Numbers are from US Inflation Calculator. These may not be exact since Trump has fired the people that normally do the calculations in an effort to hide the truth that inflation is NOT down.
I think he was saying that sarcastically, as team Trump is trying to claim, while everyone, even MAGA, knows the truth. One of the reasons we are seeing the gouging and price rise on certain goods, like the ones Michael mentioned, is due to the tarrifs and not necessarily normal inflation. So in effect, Trump is personally responsible for the rise in prices on many things, a new tax for us to pay.
There was something I read about that the prices have increased due to natural forces (some kind of blight or the like) but I can’t remember what it was…drat. However, other than that, the cause of prices rising are all trump caused, either his tariffs or his immigration policies. Tariffs directly by adding to the price. immigration will affect the price of fruits and veggies due to lack of workers, same with beef as meat processing is often done by illegals. Home building, landscaping, hotels, all are more expensive even though they are not subject to tariffs because workers have either been deported or are afraid to come to work.
They've been spreading this crooked message since someone whispered "trickle down economics" in Reagan's ear. Ronnie, known for being good at taking direction, repeated "trickle down economics" enough times that some fools actually believed it.
Many people are drawn to the hateful messaging, which really started under Gingrich and mushroomed into the Tea Party movement in 2009/2010. Trump saw an opportunity and seized on that hate, promoting and mushrooming a fringe birther conspiracy that was relegated to the craziest fringe of the far right, into mainstream media in 2011.
Ironically, the TEA party movement was supposedly "taxed enough already," but morphed into a general movement about government intervention in our lives. We know what the movement really was about (a black man in the WH) and all of these anti-tax, anti-govt types are now all MAGA and onboard with Trump's new taxes on us (tariffs) and his govt overreach on trying to control speech, books, sports (remember the NFL boycotts?) the beer we drink (bud light boycott,) our ability to get life saving vaccines, and now, even Tyenol.
Remember when he said girls 👧 can go without barbies? He's always attacking females of any age. You never hear him say boys can go without their trucks or dinosaurs 🦕, or hot wheels, etc. He's a piece of shit. He needs to be removed and his entire fascist corrupt autocratic regime. They've all committed treason.
They all need to go to prison for a VERY long time!
I think they will! Maybe not this year but it will happen. If we go to war with Venezuela he’ll be on the International list as a war criminal.
The entire regime needs to be prosecuted. They've committed so much crime in less than 11 months! Horrible pieces of shit.
Completely agree!
I think he already is for bombing fishing boats.
That's among all the other crimes he's committed in this term already here at home and internationally. Everyday he does something that convicts him for impeachment.
MAGA, the national economic statistics show that you folks are getting hit the most by Trump's inflation.

TacoTits keeps talking about execution...........did bubba put that into his head????
With him anything goes. He's demented.
Have to keep fighting each day,, all day and every day...........
Look forward to the Trumpenburg Trials when Orange Hitler and his Nazi regime will face charges of treason, aiding the enemy, traitor, crimes against humaniy........the list is endless.
no Bubba just told the blow queen trump to give him another blow job.
TacoTits is into sloppy seconds..........Melania was playing hide the wennie with Epstein before Cankles ended up with her.........Putin knows all this.....thats why Russian TV shows all the Melania lesbo-porn outakes .........as long as Bubba is around......or a a micophone needs a blow job...........

I shop at my local SharpShopper and buy eggs from a local farmer. I'm not seeing any lower prices
Prices are high for many reasons, like it isn't ranchers that set beef prices - it's corporate meat packers.

I keep cheering for the Big Mac, Fries, and Diet Cokes to do their thing.

Here's how a foreign newspaper cartoon summed up the situation: Europe accepts Putin's peace deal, on the condition that it gives the US back to Europe.
This has always confused me. How exactly does Trump negotiate peace deals without one of the parties to "the deal"?
It's simple: that means THERE IS NO DEAL.
His "deal" about Gaza was the same. Hamas wasn't involved, so there was the typical prisoner/hostages swap that they do over there once in a while, and that's it. Israel immediately continued the bombing, and now Hamas explicitly said that for them, nothing changed so there is no peace deal at all, they continue to fight back. Obviously.
Trump is BAD at deal making. It's all fake. Photo-ops is all he does.
Yes - he really is the worst offender of "fake news".
He’s a narcissist who has to be the face of the news 24/7 lying his ass off. I read after Charlie Kirk’s death he was jealous of all the news coverage he was getting so he made up a bunch of lies to get the news back on him.
Imagination! He doesn't live in the real world. .Miller feeds his fantasies!
He's still negotiating for Putin.
He isn't. Foreign newspapers have shown how the English of the Ukraine proposal is "off" and only makes sense if you assume it was literally translated from Russian.
So it's Putin who WROTE the damn thing, and then hired some lousy translators who translated it into English.
That's why it's just a document containing everything Putin ever wanted, and that's it.
There are no negotiations at all.
Trump simply sent Putin's document to Zelensky and that's it.
Europe now sent Trump its own proposal, so NOW the negotiations COULD begin (although I doubt Trump will be interested in doing so, and Putin is definitely not).
And Zelenskyy didn’t even say thank you!
Lol. I think he politely said "No, thank you!"
And then of course, TACO Trump already said that Nov. 27 is not a real deadline, this is just his first proposal to start the negotiations...
Meanwhile, the atrocities in Ukraine continue. For the tenth month. That's ten months LATER than when Trump promised to end the war.
Really he is supposed to say thank you to Trump who is nothing but Putin’s puppet. Russia invaded Ukraine without provocation because murderous thug Putin wanted to start recreating the USSR - under himself of course. So
in what universe should Ukraine cede any territory to Russia. Only in the universe where Putin has dirt on a totally unfit corrupt president of the USA who in turn is blackmailing Zelensky.

It's because he's a delusional psychopath. He's a compulsive liar and in complete denial. Unfit to remain as president. None of his administration is fit to run this country.
How many times do they have run our country down before the honest people stand to up for America.

Do you think he will ever pay for the atrocities he has committed? I hope so!!
Even though he may never be arrested for his crimes, He will suffer. His Dementia will numb his understanding the Cruel hurt he has done. Nobody loves him. He will be hated for all time. That's Karma.
When I read this, I was thinking how much of the Meidas mighty gets it. The ones who need to open their minds, for their own good, they won’t get it. Not until it’s too late I’m afraid. Hindsight is 20•20.
I hate to admit it but Im'a with you truth2power.
I don't know wtf wrong with humans .
Go MeidasMighty! Keep on the resistance.
Mental note for all Americans: Never elect anyone who hasn't had to manage a family's household budget on shrinking wages and increasing debt.
Never ‘vote’ for a felon!!!
That would also help. 🙂
Stephen Miller tells DJT the facts , we know Donald doesn't read. Miller manufactures everything and gives the orders. I believe he ordered Epstein and Kirk to disappear.
Also Steve Bannon, he a liability to Miller and tRump
How do you see Bannon as a liability ti Miller ? I am curious.
He was working with Epstein to repair Epstein's image as a sex criminal before Epstein's arrest and knows information about the connection to tRump and others. He is in many video's talking with Epstein about saying tRump would be worried that they were talking to each other. Bannon is saying now that he and many others would be going to prison if Democrats take back control of congress. There is damming information coming out with the release of the Epstein files. People who crime together share exposure.
But how is he a liability to Miller? Miller is the dangerous one. He is directing these tweets to hang congressman and go to military trials.
get that child molester out before it's too late
It’s too late. I’m sorry!

I, too, question Mr. Cohen's numbers.
Isn’t it about time our nation rejected him? And the oligarchs? They have been spreading his crooked message since 2010 and his birther crap.
They've been spreading this crooked message since someone whispered "trickle down economics" in Reagan's ear. Ronnie, known for being good at taking direction, repeated "trickle down economics" enough times that some fools actually believed it.

Straight FACTS. Thank you completely forgot the hateful origin of MAGA was Gingrich.
Great column, Michael! You are a very talented writer!
he's deluded, his cronies are not. This is intentional.
