He said he would lower prices, not make them skyrocket.
I’ll be frank with you, friend— Trump is driving our economy off a cliff.
Democrats left the White House with the strongest economy in the world, and it only took Donald Trump and House Republicans 5 months to blow it all up.
While his administration accepts luxury jets from foreign countries and throws around tariffs like children's toys, everyday Americans are left taking the brunt of the costs as the markets crash and prices rise.
And it might get worse before it gets better, friend.
Social services programs are being gutted, and Trump gets us into another trade war by the minute, all in the name of ensuring the wealthiest stay wealthy.
But that won’t happen— especially not while we can still do something about it. My CBC colleagues and I are committed to saving Medicare and Medicaid, protecting working-class Americans, and ensuring our economy works for all of us, not just the wealthy few.
