Hi, I'm Alexa, and I usually use this space to track Donald Trump's "hot" economy, but we also need to examine how his policies are affecting everyday people — especially his loyal followers. So, welcome to Donnie Hate Watch.
As the Iran war directly affects prices Americans are seeing at the gas pump, y'all's Commander-in-Chief basically told reporters that he couldn't give less of a shit about rising prices.
“I don’t have any concern about it,” he told Reuters in an exclusive interview. “[Gas prices will] drop very rapidly when this is over, and if they rise, they rise, but this is far more important than having gasoline prices go up a little bit.”
"If they rise, they rise." Wonderful.
Considering that about one in four US households live paycheck to paycheck, this obviously didn't sit well with citizens, and that includes Trump's loyal base. (I guess Orange Daddy didn't deliver on lowering prices, did he?)
One affected Trump supporter includes this senior, who complained on Facebook, "I'm going to throw this out there, and I don't care if you agree with it or disagree with it because this is my belief this is the way I think and this is the way I feel."
Wow, they're starting off strong.
"I voted for Trump because I knew he'd bring prices down as far as fuel groceries you know the essentials to make it easier on us older Americans but what's happening is he's increasing it," they wrote. "And what's funny is that fuel is going up 1020 maybe 30% more as well as our groceries or electricity just our daily living is going to be increased 10 20 30% because of this war."
Readers, I'm so sorry. Their punctuation and spacing is abysmal. It's so hard to read. I'm convinced they only found Trump's name on voting day because it's easy to spell.
"You're crasy if you live on Social Security," they continued. "This war is killing older generations older people somebody needs to put a stop to this somebody needs to do something."
Wow, that was hard to get through — both the spelling and audacity.
If you're wondering how other MAGA voters responded to the post... well, this sums it up:
On the flip side, people genuinely couldn't believe that someone thought Trump would seriously bring prices down.
"He voted for Trump because he KNEW he'd bring prices down. Brilliant," Snoo-7943 wrote sarcastically.
Others couldn't believe the MAGA voter was begging for someone to "do something" to stop Trump's policies.
"Somebody could have done that for you, babe. You voted for her opponent," auntieup said. "Now it’s just you and your bootstraps."
"'Somebody has to stop this,'" Rocketparty12 mocked. "Yeah man, that person was you, and you massively failed."
Overall, commenters are reminding the poster that they voted for Trump, and now they've got him.
"You voted for this, and this is what you wanted. So maybe you can be that special somebody to go out and vote D this time to reverse the mess? (Nah – JK, you aren't smart enough to... vote for your own self-interest," sowhat4 said.
YIKES. What are your thoughts?
