Hes got 30 days to cut all our electric bills in half by jan 20th. He said at all his rallies he would make the electrical companies cut their rates in half, in 1 year. Jan 20th that bill comes due
....which of course was just another trump lie to get elected and avoid prison.

75% plus say grocery prices are up, despite Trump’s repeat claims
“Our?groceries?are way down. Everything is way down,” Trump said November 6. “Groceries are way down, other than beef,” he said at another point. He added last week that grocery prices were “already at a much lower level than they were with the last administration.”
But just 12% of Americans said grocery prices have gone down over the last six months, according to a new Marquette University Law School poll.
By contrast, 75% said they’ve gone up.

You are also not doing great - everyone that thinks that either don’t understand the numbers or don’t know what to compare you to - your stock market is up 18%-ish this year - the average gain in the world stock market is 30% this year - so you have actually underperformed by 12% - just to become average for the year !
And the dollar value compared to the euro has almost fell exactly the same procentage amount as your stock market has grown - which would nullify a lot of your gains as your market is run a lot by foreign investments
Don't mention the frogs - we don't want to scare the toddler - we want him to sleep

In 2025, US rate of return was less than stock markets of Europe, China and Japan. Stock gains benefit top 20% income households that own over 80% of stocks. In contrast, middle and poor Americans are struggling. But stock market is not the economy. Overall, consumer spending has been declining for months except for top 10% households accounting for nearly 50% of consumer spending.

Not "great" nope!......not under the trump regime. But many MAGAs like to think that if the stock market is doing well here in the US then that implies that most of the working poor and most of those in the lower middle-income class are making windfall profits/dividends and enjoy several tropical vacations every year, thanks all to der Fuhrer of the MAGA Reich....

Polls show most Americans oppose all military action in Venezuela. For examples, strikes on drug boats and overthrow of Maduro. Trump imperialism is more unpopular than his big ugly bill.
But of course the convicted felon/racist/rapist/fascist non-Christian will do it anyway...

Since 1980, the voting gender gap has completely reversed, with a higher proportion of women voting than men in each of the last nine presidential elections.
The Center for American Women and Politics summarizes how this trend can be measured differently both in terms of proportion of voters to non-voters, and in terms of the bulk number of votes cast. "In every presidential election since 1980, the proportion of eligible female adults who voted has exceeded the proportion of eligible male adults who voted
This gender gap has been a determining factor in several recent presidential elections, as women have been consistently about 15% more likely to support the candidate of the Democratic Party than the Republican candidate in each election since 1996.

Very interesting...

A small majority of white women picked Trump over Harris in the 2024 presidential election.--The Trump-Harris Gender Gap
Democrats still have better job to do to improve in that area, Fubah.
There is little to practically none guardrail whatsoever to the Trump administration, Dems got to win this upcoming midterm. Check and balance should exist in our political system. Keep fingers crossed and hope for the best.

Trump aint leaving office until he dies

The poll finds little appetite for a broader policy of US expansionism, even as Trump extols the military capture of Venezuela’s Nicolas Máduro – declaring afterward that the US would now “run” the country
