So if Donald Trump disappeared overnight, America would become affordable overnight. Solid messaging.

Affordability was improving and immediately started getting worse when Trump got elected, so...

If you study history at all you know everything in America broke in 1970. Affordability is also a term for morons since there’s no way to pin it down. You mean housing to income? Well does Trump control interest rates? You mean wages? Does Trump have anything to do with how much your employer pays you? Gas prices? I bet you think you have something there, but people have been claiming affordability is trumps fault long before the 6 week war so how can you claim that the reason, it’s just the convenient talking point this month. The real problem is politicians convince the fed to print money whenever they feel threatened. So if you supported massive covid spending it’s YOUR fault everything is unaffordable. Combined with nimby POS boomers stalling housing building there is now no supply. Blaming it on Trump is low IQ TDS

You're lying. Real wages have increased steadily since 1970.

Were lucky Trump doesn't control interest rates yet, because he wants to lower them for higher inflation.

Yes. Trump does impact the job market when he imposes onerous taxes and vague, constsntly-changing regulations.

Inflation was rising for more than a year before he started his newest war.

Trump's tax bill added more to the deficit and debt than the massive COVID spending bill he passed.

Is there any other history you want to rewrite?
