President Donald Trump’s launch of a nationwide “affordability tour” this week may look to some like an admission that Americans are struggling under the weight of the administration’s tariffs and rising utility and grocery costs—but Trump assured one reporter on Tuesday that he would acknowledge no such thing.

    And wildly his stupid, demented, dipshit dumb fuck, dumb ass moron, troglodyte base will believe it and echo it at max volume at any given opportunity.

    They themselves are losing everything to Trump and will demand you believe the opposite lest you contradict their god-emporer.

      Ran into an idiot at a bar that kept claiming up and down his cost of living has gone down and his groceries aren’t expensive. Literally everyone around him called him a dumbass. It seemed like he was literally so dumb that he was just told that the cost of things had gone down so he believed it.

        That’s literally just it.

        They could be lit on fire and as long as Trump or Fox News tells them they’re not on fire, they’ll believe it and spread bullshit that stop drop and roll is a communist conspiracy.
