    I mean yeah, I agree with you, but I fail to see how what Trump promises improves any of the things that people said they care about during this election. Yes, shit’s expensive everywhere right now. But deporting all the foreigners and installing punitive tariffs isn’t going to fix it.

    And do we really think the corporate tax cuts that are ensure to be coming will end up raising wages?

    Trump can get away without campaigning on specifics, somehow.

      This was a referendum on the status quo, and Harris ran on “more of the same”.

      You are trying to make this about Trump, but Trump wasn’t in power over the previous four years.
