Rally-style series of boasts does not include much in the way of plans to address affordability crisis
Donald Trump on Wednesday used a nationally-televised address to deliver a campaign-style rant in which he blamed his predecessor for the economic woes Americans are feeling a year into his presidency while offering little in the way of proposals to address the higher prices caused in large part by the massive tariffs he has placed on almost all American imports.
Speaking from the Diplomatic Reception Room at the White House, Trump opened by claiming to have “inherited a mess” that he was now “fixing.”
What followed was a partisan rant indistinguishable from the signature rallies that have been the centerpiece of his political movement, in which he rattled off a list of grievances while blaming his predecessor for the state of the country nearly a full year after he took the oath of office.
From his perspective things look better because he added gold ornamentations & embellishments to the walls in his office, and he renovated the historic Lincoln restroom in the White House and he fired everyone who would’ve told him he’s not allowed to hire a demolition crew to tear down the east wing of the White House.
I hope he blows a gasket while straining on one of his gold-plated shitters.
