Trump takes back his promise to lower food prices.

@Frostcloud this lol

@ElwoodBlues @ViciDraco Politicians have a grand tradition of promising the moon, but Donald Trump has raised it to an art form.

@LordShadowfire his delivery of the moon promise involves crashing it into the planet

@ViciDraco I was going to say it involved him showing America his bare cheeks, but that's better.

@Roundandroundwego Yes this is true and exactly what they voted for.

@Mesthartiya I guess have to give credit lol

@Mesthartiya He'd be telling the truth only if he said he lied. This is an attempt to blame the problem, not his failure to solve it.

Any credit - trump will steal it from whomever earned it
Any blame - trump will put it on someone else

@Entwistle Americans didn't have a national or socialist plan to feed themselves. They voted against that. Poverty kills but they deserve it.

@Roundandroundwego It's sometimes hard to feel compassion for those that willingly vote to hurt themselves.

@Entwistle as a leftist I don't forget that they went for us first.

@Experienced33 It's right there so not bs. But good try, I give you a participation trophy

@SatanBurger I'm most saddened because I would like to see someone like AOC run for president some day. She's got the working class background and the willingness to actually call rich people out and get combative with them that I think we need in an executive. And I'm sad being a woman might be what holds that back.

@ViciDraco Actually it's for precisely that reason why AOC has a high chance actually, she's aggressive and if women are viewed as weak then aggression is what is going to work, eventually.

Here's something you might like, generational shifts:
