Trump's economic policies have been nothing short of disastrous for our country, and the American people are taking notice.
Nearly three-fourths (72%) of Americans say the economy is in "poor shape"
Over two-thirds (68%) of Americans say things are going badly with the state of the country
Over three-fifths (61%) say Trump's policies have worsened economic conditions in the US
In a recent social media post, Trump proclaimed that "2025 Thanksgiving dinner under Trump is 25% lower than 2024 Thanksgiving dinner under Biden, according to Walmart. My cost are lower than the Democrats on everything, especially oil and gas! So the Democrats “affordability” issue is DEAD! STOP LYING!!!"
He also said the following in a press conference: "Our groceries are way down. Everything is way down. And the press does not report it… Thanksgiving meals 25% down. So I don't want to hear about the affordability."
News outlets have already disputed his comments. Reporting confirms that Walmart’s 2025 Holiday Meal contains only 15 items, while the company’s 2024 Holiday Meal included 29 items. This year’s basket no longer has multiple Thanksgiving staples, including pecan pie, cranberry sauce, whipped cream, mini marshmallows, corn muffin mix, as well as fresh sweet potatoes, celery, and onions. Additionally, many of the name-brand items have been replaced by Walmart’s Great Value items.
