It's not as if many didn't predict this was going to happen if he was re-elected:
Link: Trump’s economic challenge: $40tn debt, 6.7% mortgages and $5 diesel
"Almost two years since Donald Trump won election pledging to slash prices and fix the US’s public finances, his Iran war and tax cuts have delivered a different outcome: record-high debt, soaring fuel costs and punishing mortgage rates.
Investors pushed yields on long-term US debt to a 19-year high on Tuesday amid alarm at the weight of public borrowing and the war’s inflationary fallout.
The market tumult underlines how Trump’s economic agenda risks unraveling just as November’s midterm elections loom into view.
Polls show Democrats leading the president’s Republicans on their handling of the economy.
Government debt hit a record $40tn this week, with borrowing rising at its fastest pace outside the pandemic era as federal spending outstrips income."
As the November midterm elections approach, let's take stock of the exalted position in the world that our bold and intrepid 'Art of The Deal' president has brought our nation to, shall we?
Drumpf boasted that he and only he could deliver prosperity and good times to American consumers. He has done the exact opposite.
DonOld's unhinged stewardship of the US economy has brought record-high national debt.
His losing 'Big Iran Armageddon Adventure' with Israel has caused fuel costs for working Americans to soar and sharply rising diesel prices to increase the costs of consumer goods across the board.
Under Drumpf, mortgage rates have risen to levels that have priced most Americans out of the home-buying market.
Basic living necessities such as gas, food, housing, utilities, and healthcare have become frighteningly more expensive for an increasingly larger number of Americans.
Recent polls not performed by MAGA-friendly pollsters indicate a historically record-breaking level of steadily sinking US consumer confidence in the Drumpf/MAGA economy.
And now he has reignited his tariff war against the largest and closest trading partner of the United States - Canada.
Sigh...
😐
There isn't much to be said other than this is what predictably occurs when willfully misinformed voters walk into a polling booth after having ingested gobs of online and media propaganda from some of the most diabolically unscrupulous propagandists that presently exist on this planet (looking at you Fox "news"), and based on that propaganda consciously choose to elect a life-long con artist and fraudster whose manufactured image of a fabulously successful, enviously wealthy, shrewd "businessman" has always been nothing but a delusive front designed to project and protect the entirely fake public image of an individual who is actuality a common crook, an embezzler, a tax cheat, a business fraudster, a serial sex offender, an adjudicated rapist, and a suspected child rapist.
The above described individual is the person who the people who cast ballots for DonOld Drumpf voted for in 2020. Sadly, with every passing day it becomes harder and harder to believe that those voters didn't know what kind of scumbag criminal they were actually voting for.
Turn off Fox "news" and right-wing media. They have deceived and manipulated everyone long enough.
Refuse to cast a vote for a single candidate that has the letter (R) after their name for the foreseeable future.
That's how we get out of this mess and salvage what's left of our democracy and our American way of life.
