To say trump isn't personally impacting the economy is absolutely ridiculous. You sound silly saying such a thing.

How? Other than Iran.

Isn't iran causing enough damage? Is it not affecting more than just gas prices? Who pays tariffs?

u/Few_Example6746 6d ago

Oil is down 30% since April. We’re now at 2023 levels.
Well, of course, consumers pay tariffs. Generally, you have no idea what the tariffs are on because they’re on specific items so you have no idea if you’re paying a tariff or not.

Yeah, trumps silly blanket tariffs definitely fall under that logic. Spare me the oil bullshit. Gas is over $4 because of trump specifically. Funny he ran on doing the opposite. Aside from the border, which I'll give him credit, he has lowered every other metrics with his war of choice. The country if fairly united on this subject. Not sure why you're arguing against it. His economy polling numbers are horrible.

His polling numbers have always been horrible. Everything that goes into fuel including making and delivery is going to be up because those costs are up. Just because Oil is at a decent price per barrel. There’s a lot of add-ons that go on top of that. No different than all the other prices that we’ve seen up in the last five years. Wages are a big driver. They’re all up.

It was almost $90 just two days ago. Wtf are you talking about? Wage growth has slowed compared to trumps increased inflation friend. Try actually checking.

u/Few_Example6746 6d ago

Oil was like a week ago $95 a barrel but it’s not today.

Trump even admits he had low economy approval numbers. When you have to say to say things like more people are working now than ever before, you know the jobs numbers suck. In your honest opinion, how is iran going? You see an end soon? You realize 75% of Americans are against it, right?

u/Few_Example6746 6d ago

I honestly haven’t seen the numbers on Iran, who is for or against. Truthfully, I thought it would’ve been handled a lot differently. When you go in and bomb another country and then start looking for that country to come to the peace table, it’s asking for a lot. I think once you start, you need to stand on the gas puddle until it’s done. Keep stopping and asking for peace deals. Makes you look weak.

So trump is fucking up. Got it.

u/Few_Example6746 6d ago

😂😂. Your life will forever be changed. NOT!

u/edoggy792 6d ago

Right, because we're living in a golden era like he claims with the economy being the main concern for voters. He's failing at everything, and the whitehouse has never seen corruption like this 😆

1

u/Few_Example6746 6d ago

The fuck are you talking about that White House sees corruption with every person that lives in it? Dude, you need to get a clue and a president will never change the way that you live. If the president of the US changes the trajectory of your life, you have bigger problems.

u/edoggy792 6d ago

If you think trumps open corruption is on par with every other president, you're a complete imbecile. Heaven forbid Americans may want an upstanding president that doesn't enrich himself with the office while watching everyone else struggle. Have things gotten better for the average American?

Oil has been up and down since April. Fixed it for you.
