Summary

After campaigning on promises to reduce costs for the working class, Donald Trump has largely gone silent on cost-of-living issues since his election.

In a recent interview, he admitted he could not restore grocery prices to 2019 levels without a recession.

While gas prices and groceries are already falling, Trump’s policies focus on government cuts and HB-1 visa expansions, which may harm his base.

Instead of addressing working-class concerns, he has turned to controversial ideas like buying Greenland or reclaiming the Panama Canal, drawing global criticism.

    The US in 2024 is incredibly far removed from any of those countries in the 1920’s and 1930’s. Sorry but this comparison doesn’t make sense to me.

        Why? I struggle to find any common thread between those four countries in the 1920’s and 1930’s, and certainly have no idea why people living there at that time are being called stupid.
