Trump is selling a strong economy. Voters aren’t buying it.
Trump is selling a strong economy. Voters aren’t buying it.
Lost his mojo.
I don’t buy that lie as we do go to the Grocery Store and his tariffs are making prices going up. Why did people vote for this guy?
When the US is in stagflation and the stock market is in a bubble fueled by AI = voters know things are bad with unemployment rising and inflation over 3% and rising due to Trump's idiotic tariffs.
The AI bubble is the one bright spot for the US economy, its putting lots of money in your pension funds and making jobs in construction and IT and its making revenues for lots of tech companies, for now its good but there will be problems of adjustment as always
“Bright spot for the US economy” do you mean shareholders and tech billionaires? That shit doesn’t trickle down ☠️
And when the bubble bursts - with how leveraged the economy is, it could lead to a devastating recession that risks being as bad as 2008 or worse.
The Internet bubble burst remember, the Dot Bomb. And what happened to the Internet since then. Oh I don't now, some small firms like Google. Meta, Amazon, Netflix, Uber.....
. 2004 Trump Interview with Wolf @ CNN. BLITZER: Do you identify more as a Democrat or Republican? TRUMP: "Well, you'd be shocked if I said that in many cases I probably identify more as Democrat. .... And it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans." .
. Blue States would argue that this Trump perspective holds true on the state level. .
Because it's not true
If you are unhappy with the economy, get on the phone or e-mail and tell your reps in DC. It only takes a few minutes and it doesn't cost any money. We don't need money in politics. We just need people to participate. www.nationalfinancialplan.com
He is full of shit
No - we aren’t buying it. Can’t afford it.
Voters may not be buying it, but they are already paying dearly.
trump doesnt have a strong economy to sell think maybe thats why?
That is because trump is lying..
🙄nope
Wow. Politico has given up even pretending to be a legitimate news service. If I wanted propaganda and hate filled bullshit I’d just watch Russian television. Do better. Be better.
It’s a lie. He is a liar.
Reality isn’t buying it.
Prices around here are up considerably. Gas is higher than it was a month ago. ...Not buying it.
The economy is stronger but the price of everything is still in the crapper. If you fix that then you can brag.
His derangement is too obvious.
Jesus does that orange pos not realize that citizens look at their bank accounts 😳 they know everything is more expensive and their dollar is disappearing faster wtf kind of idiots believe these lies check your grocery receipts thats an indicator not the bullshit he shovels out
Trump’s financial past indicates he will have America in bankruptcy court after the midterms, when stagflation comes home to roost 🐔
The public doesn’t have any money to buy it
It's strong for him and his oligarch friends.
NO LE CREAIS, POR FAVOR.
Voters also aren’t buying this article.
No kidding. Real estate is in the basement.
He has never understood tariffs. Americans are paying all these unneccesary taxes on food and other necessities of life. This president is a complete disaster, and that is just putting it mildly!!
Groceries are $1,000 per month. Not good!
Farmers love him.... or did
Because they know he's lying.
I'll believe him when he starts paying for my groceries.🙄
but it's a strong economy, with many tears flowing.
Beware the grifter salesman. Nothing he says is remotely connected to reality.
Rapist pedophile trying to sell a narrative that’s he’s not a piece of shit. Fools, traitors, and Republicans believe him.
Fools, traitors and Republicans... I'm doing my best to distinguish between the three, but I honestly just can't.
Trump: ALL PRICES EVERYWHERE ARE DOWN 2500%! WE JUST KEEP WINNING. OTHER COUNTRIES HAVE CALLED AND SAID MR PRESIDENT, WE SUCK COMPARED TO YOU! Me: PRICES DOWN MOTHERFUCKER!? THEN WHERE THE FUCK DID ALL MY MONEY GO BY THE 9TH! IM BROKE B/C YOUR BUDDIES WANT TO GO TO MARS. IM GONNA SEND THEM TO HELL!
If you ask any AI (or economist) what policies will best destroy and undermine America, you get the exactly list of Trump policies. www.openculture.com/2025/04/the-... medium.com/@richardjohn...
I only got this far before I realized your article is full of poop. "...gas prices have fallen to levels not seen in decades.". This is not true.
Politicon is letting AI write the articles now.
Voters are right not to buy it and Trump is not creative or clever enough to fix it. Therefore, if he remains in power... I think he has a long-term vision of creating a war economy... whilst at the same time trying to steer clear of war. But it will backfire: treachery is never forgotten.
Bull shit
Trump is a pathological liar. Anyone who believes anything he says is an idiot.
Because his idiot followers believe all his lies, but it's harder to continue to believe when you can't pay for your groceries.
Trump is lying about the economy. There, I fixed your stupid headline.
Trump is lying about economy because he is a lying sack of shit. Politico and other media are helping him lie. Americans are not buying it anymore.
It might not matter if voters are buying it or not. Can we even trust that the election will be run fairly? Will there be an election at all?
Who with a grain of common sense or understanding would "buy" what the pathological liar Trump is pimping with the 'economy?' According to economists and those in academics and sciences agree that we've entered a period of "stagflation" despite what the unadjudicted pedophile and liar says.
He’s selling a strong economy like how Elizabeth Holmes sold blood testing equipment.
WHO is winning⁉️The Elites. Only HATE is trickling down. payhip.com/SerfdomDigital
Have you ever noticed that trump keeps telling us, about everything, that it's just around the corner? Prices coming down soon.putin needs more time.2weeks and then I'll do something. Of course it doesn't happen, it never does. When all along he throws more sh!t at us for a distraction. Epstein!!!!
Trump Tongue Translation Process: The opposite of 'Trump's Bullshit Screed' is the Truth. Up is down and down is up in Trump Tongue.
Politico also trying to sell a strong economy by saying things aren't as bad someone thought they were going to be in a single quarter.
Oh really, turning things around? Millionaires in the WH cabinet haven't been to a food store in years and have no clue about what it means to try to make ends meet with SOARING food prices. Yeah, he was going to fix the "grocery".
One thing to count on: Trump lies every single time he speaks. Period.
I'm still trying to understand why people believe Kamala was all about identity politics and no economic vision when she was all about economics and very tepid on minority protections. While Trump was ALL ABOUT identity politics and had concepts of a plan. Up is down, black is white.
You only have to take one trip to the grocery store to know Dear Leader is lying. Again.
Because the economy sucks and he’s a pathological liar. It would cool if just ONE media outlet had the balls to tell the TRUTH
How is it “turning things around” when prices are going up as compared to where they were the day Trump became president?
He's also selling bibles, rancid steaks, racism and the idea he isn't a pedophile.. Hilarious.
Trouble is, Trump's relationship with the truth is so fucked up that if Trump said it was sunny outside, I would instinctively reach for an umbrella.
Because we unlike he are buying groceries and putting gas in our cars. He poops in a gold toilet.
Biden handed Trump a strong economy, which Trump has sabotaged with tariffs, immigration restriction, firing federal workers, and attacking the rule of law and the Constitution. bsky.app/profile/davi...
The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. Hey, Politico, what do you call "journalists" who uncritically repeat the lies of a fascist regime? Or try to paint an incompetent fascist dictator in the best possible light?
Eggs are more expensive now than they were when he took office. Actually most groceries are more expensive now.
Nobody trusts, Mr. Honesty?
He pooped in the drinking water.
Utter crap propaganda. "People aren't feeling it" because it's not true. "Inflation hasn’t surged" because the tariffs have not hit yet. Gas prices have not fallen to "levels not seen in decades". Tariffs are one of the biggest tax increases in American history, and BY FAR the most regressive.
No one buys his 💩 only MAGA morons.
If Trump is breathing he is lying would be a more accurate title.
Voters can hardly afford to buy anything now. His bullshit would be a luxury item.
Selling Biden’s strong economy, and killing it with tariffs and undermining confidence by trying to destroy the impartiality of the Fed.
Politico- Any chance anyone is looking into the impact on local housing, retail and other impacts of ICE and Trump actions year to date? What are those landlords, service companies and banks feeling about now?
How are their policies turning things around, exactly?
Americans are 20% poorer due to Trump’s polices. I noticed MAGAs stopped asking if we were better off than 4 years ago... 🤔 NOT my fault! That's why I often wear this "Don't blame me, I voted for her" shirt 👇 libtees.dashery.com/products/798...
Uneasy about prices? The guy is killing us in the streets!!! Who writes this shit?
He is killing us in the street!
If Trump really wants to generate income he should start selling the Epstein list.
youtu.be/NUYP9Faod7o?...
This Shit4brains hasn’t been to a grocery store lately, has he?
The US had THE strongest economic recovery from COVID on the planet. The Trump Morons blew it all because some right wing Rasputins whispered economic witchcraft into President Cuckoo Bananas' ear. Believe your eyes, folks. They really are all incompetent. Especially Secretary Brainworm Roadkill.
It’s like a department store, there are other things they can buy.
Trump was inheriting a strong economy. He wasn’t buying it.
Anybody who buys anything knows how fuked up he's made us
Selling or conning??? Conning for certain. he believes if he is “positive “ about everything it will become positive ….. Not happening this year and maybe never
C’mon American press and media—call him what he is—a grifting shyster—oh afraid?
That’s because billions were pumped into the economy also causing inflation the highest in 40 years. Unfortunately the ones hurt the most by inflation are the ones on the bottom
Not true at all. Especial when gas eggs meat milk are all down. Others may not be down but they aren’t going up either like they did for the past 4 years
Gas is not at it’s lowest in decades. Home repairs are unaffordable. Electricity prices have gone wild.
The only audience he should EVER have is a mirror.
No shit @politico.com . Now stop bending the knee.
👍
Didn’t get far before you lost me with the lies in the second paragraph. Great journalism.
Hahahaha, mr TACO trump and his disgusting repubs in congress are not fooling voters and they will hold them accountable in ‘26.
Nope. Never gonna be brainwashed by the con.
What everyone is believing their lying eyes, instead of Trump’s bullshit? It’s like millions of people woke up from the fever dream of what Trump promised vs. what he hasn’t delivered. 🖕😑🖕
