What has Trump done to lower medical costs, egg costs, utility costs, gasoline costs, housing costs, and education costs?

[Amy10223]

Weren't grocery prices one of the main goals Trump promised? What else did he promise, that has not happened yet? In his 6 weeks of presidency--all he has done is sow discord and kiss up to Putin, making Ukraine look like the enemy. So--the grocery prices, immigration, and other things were the distractions he made so that people would vote for him, and then bang! Nothing is done about groceries and inflation.

All of those things are GOING UP under Trump. His policies specifically push prices higher for every one of those things.

On day 1 he signed an executive order canceling Biden’s limits on prescription drug prices and prices on many medications shot up by 1000% overnight, for simple necessities like insulin.

In education he is tearing down the Department of Education and eliminating federal funding to pubic schools. He also canceled hundreds of billions of dollars of research grants, many of which were through universities.

And EVERY product in the US will be impacted by his tariff wars. Even if in the end he cancels all his tariffs the US will still suffer because other countries no longer see the US as a stable trading partner. They’re boycotting American products.

I would bet a lot that if we searched all of your social media accounts for the past 4 years, we would not find ONE single complaint against the Biden administration for the skyrocketing grocery prices,... not one peep about the price of eggs, which was due to Biden ordering the extermination of over 166 million chickens since 2022, due to some of them potentially having bird flu. Think about that for a moment. MSNBC tells their loyal sheep to blame Trump for this, and the sheep obeyed without even questioning the fact that TRUMP WAS NOT PRESIDENT IN 2022! This was two years after he left office! The sad, indoctrinated "woke" crowd, began blaming Trump for the price of eggs, the first week he was in office. It was mass hysteria! You would think this was the most important issue in their lives. Now, if you had asked these people before the election, none of the sheep would complain about it. None would blame Joe. They would all say that the president doesn't have any control over that.

Now, about the prescription drug issue... When Trump was president the 1st time, on May 26, 2020, he signed an executive order to cap the price of insulin at $35. When Joe Bide. Became president, he struck that down! Then, a year later, he brought it back and all the liberal media praised him. This action was done to shift the credit to Biden, and as always, the sheep fell for it. . Trump is now cutting some of Biden's executive orders on prescription drugs, so they can draft a new regulation that doesn't have hidden add-ons that are wasteful.

The demartment of education needed to be ended. Every single person working there is a radical, leftist indoctrinator and they are destroying education in the USA. Their entire focus is on DEI initiatives and Woke brainwashing. They supported teachers removing the American flag in classrooms and replacing them with pride flags. They allowed elementary school classrooms to be filled with books teaching kids how to be gay and trans, and graphic comics of hardcore sex acts. The idea is to turn all kids, "woke", with an end goal of ensuring that the democrats win every election, and eventually achieve one party rule. Each state can run their own Department Of Education.

About tarriffs : They are used as a bargain tool. Canada already had tariffs on American goods before Trump became president. Trump just evened the playing field. Basically, Trump is telling Canada, "You drop your tarriffs on us, i'll drop the tarriffs on you!" Do you want trade to be fair, or do you want the rest of the nations have the upper hand?

[Friendlybro79]

Like she asked. What has Trump, the savior done, to uphold his word to lower the prices she asked about. Ok so blame Biden for everything but what is Trump doing? He said he and him alone would solve all our problems.

[Amy10223]

@Friendlybro79 Thank you, Friendlybro79. I'll have to add to your answer, ANONYMOUS. Medicare and Epi pens have a long history. Biden rolled the prices down on his own. It wasn't Trump's doing at all. And for your information, Trump is proposing to cut Medicare and Medicaid benefits for those using them. About 800M for each.

Ands if you really want to compare Trump with other presidents--he took the credit for Obama's strong economy as Obama left office--and then the economy became worse as Trump left.

That is what he was voted for.

He's too distracted shattering the country for rich tax breaks and lining his own pocket with his coin, oh and selling teslas.

So, yes. This is the golden question. And the answer is: nothing.

He never intended to. The word groceries is so foreign to him he can't even pronounce it properly. Someone made a video clip of every time he has said it. Hilarious.

Today's inflation report shows that inflation not only went down but went down more than expected. Gas prices have gone down 50 cents a gallon since Trump ws elected. Not a single new well has been drilled yet. Oil is 66 dollars a barrel, the lowest in 4 years. Energy prices will also go down with more energy development. The price of eggs has gone down. It is not as low as it was when Trump was in office the first time but it is going down. Trump is kicking illegal aliens off Medicaid and social security. Doge is investigating Social Security, medicare and medicaid, Finding tns of billions in waste will result in more efficiency and lower costs.

Education will receive a total makeover. For years America has paid the highest per pupil expenditure in the world by far. It also gets the worst test scores of any industrialized nation. The federal DOE will be shuttered and the states will be in charge of their own schools. Tery will still be partially funded by the federal government. Trump is a proponent of school choice, giving parents a real choice in the education that their children receive. No longer will public schools have a near monopoly.

Thanks for the MHO

[Amy10223]

Sorry, but I didn't give you the MHO. It seems that GAG is giving out its own best opinions. And I bet it has to do with the moderators here who are MAGA.

[exitseven]

@amy10223 and here I thought you were finally beginning to gat with the program.

[Amy10223]

I've been with the program but it seems many of you still have not. Trump has done nothing to done anything to lower what I said. Have you been grocery shopping lately?

[exitseven]

Yes, besides the price of eggs going down it looks pretty much the same as it did on Ignauguration Day. At least it does not go up every week like it did when Biden was president and it should go down once the lower coat of fuel goes though the system.

[Twalli]

He never was going to fulfill any of his promises except seeking revenge.

[SolitarySolace]

It’s interesting how the entire premise of this question assumes Trump is responsible for the inflationary effects that were already in place long before he took office. Grocery prices, housing costs, and medical expenses skyrocketed under Biden’s administration, with no real attempt to address the root causes. Trump has barely been in office for two months, and yet you’re blaming him for policies that have been in place for years? If anything, his focus on deregulation, domestic energy production, and reducing dependency on foreign manufacturing could help stabilize costs in the long run. But sure, let’s pretend like inflation wasn’t a problem before January 20, 2025.

tRump's grand plan has had the opposite effect. He has increased inflation across the board and has destroyed the stock and bond markets. But what were you expecting. The man is an imbecile and a pathological liar. He never intended to keep any of his campaign promises. His only plan was to stay out of jail. And he knew his MAGA base is easy to con.

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

I'd say don't worry about it yet, he has concepts of a plan for both that and Healthcare. Just give him more time to dismantle this government and privatize everything when those departments are unable to function and then when we are in a recession, then... THEN he will fix things.

He promises.

For now we just have to prepare for some pain (probably a lot of it) and let the process play itself out. 🙄

/s

[DryGermanGuy]

Let's be fair here, people! Trump is currently way too busy fighting the fentanyl carrying Mexicans, the unthankful Ukrainian Nazis and the child-molesting drag queens to care about groceries and housing costs!

[IslaTheWitch]

lmao... did you believe in what he said during his campaign? really?

:D :D :D

[Dargil]

In 54 days? A lot. But you will have to do your homework and look it up. Since lefties minds are locked just like at DJT's recent speech, there is no value in out trying to convince you.

[Amy10223]

Define "A lot" and exactly what they are.

[msc545]

He has done nothing at all, and prices of some of those thing have gone up, not down. That said, did anyone actually believe he was going to lower the cost of anything?

[slatyb]

All Trump has done is wreck the economy and break critical government services.

[Bricealan]

@amy10223 My GOD AMY... how long has he been in office? Forty-five days?

[Bklynbadboy12]

He's gonna do what he always does and that's lie about it and Trump supporters will believe his lies and create fake statistics about how he did something that he didn't do

[DrPepper12]

His IQ does not exceed the ages of the women he likes to rape.

[jahaims]

Cut programs throwing away money so it can be reallocated

[Anonymous]

What would you do to bring down prices?

[Amy10223]

I would certainly make the wealthy and upper 2% of the population pay their fair share of taxes--so that the poor and middle class don't end up paying for everything and treated like slaves--that the rich take advantage of to get richer. Take that money that Trump raised from selling $250.00 sneakers, $300.00 watches, $60.00 Bibles, clothing and whatever else he grifted--and that people were stupid enough to buy--and put it to good use with programs made to help the middle class and poor. You certainly don't take from the poor to cater to the rich.

[SmokinAces2000]

He’s renamed the gulf. Apparently that’s enough

[PaleDale]

Tariffs, of course!
