Trump says affordability is a Democratic Hoax. And while he builds a gold ballroom we need to accept a lower standard of living. So no buying Suzy 37 dolls this year.

Fucking has lost his mind. All the above real shit he has said.

I don’t think he lost his mind. I think he’s always been like that. This is how the rich think the world works.

I suppose he's gotten used to his base just believing whatever bullshit he shovels in their direction, and can't understand why it isn't working on the rest of us.

The economy is just made up Democrat hoax.

I don't understand the problem. I just go to the grocery store and tell them the stock market is doing great, and they let me take anything I want.

I have to run with my stuff as I leave the store, and often they're yelling and chasing me, but that's all part of the fun!

I love this Robin Hood Economy!

Wouldn't surprise me if his yes men were telling him it was great.

They are. Watched Krugman on Zeteo today saying there's basically no competent economists left in the Republican gov't. Not that Krugman is some amazing cadre but he's point was it's only sycophants left.

I mean that's the issue with working under a narcissist right? If you're not a sycophant, they'll fire you and find someone who is (lacking a spine)

Very encouraging to hear.

What was that thing that doesn't care about your feelings again?

[–] Xavienth@lemmygrad.ml 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

People still can't afford housing because we don't have jobs because nobody's hiring because rich assholes are busy shovelling unfathomable amounts of money into the AI pit for shits and giggles.

They're trying to starve us off and tell us we just ate.

"Just live in your car." - Donald "Marie Antoinette" Trump

What I love best about Marie Antoinette references is that he has NEVER heard of her, and would have no idea how ironic it is to compare her to himself.

I can suggest an inexpensive solution to all his frustrations.

Does it involve a very large razor blade?
I'm trying to keep my head on this.

[–] bagsy@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

he could always just quit if he doesnt like his job.

[–] Attacker94@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I will take his idiocy over the next in line any day, he is flip flopping constantly which slows him down from actually accomplishing villainy, while I fear Vance would be incredibly more directed and thus far more vile.

[–] bagsy@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Vance is widely hated and not respected or feared. The house of cards falls with Vance i think.

[–] Bwaz@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

So he should look for himself what things cost and how businesses and citizens are doing instead of just listening to the spineless asskissers he's surrounded himself with.

[–] DancingBear@midwest.social 1 points 4 weeks ago

He doesn’t pay his bills, why would he care what things cost?

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 6 points 4 weeks ago

Yeah, Marie Antoinette had that problem, too.

[–] grimpy@lemmy.myserv.one 5 points 1 month ago

time for another exasperation break for Donold

[–] PanArab@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago

On the plus side for him he doesn't know how to spell exasperated.

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

No longer a populist Authoritarian.
