Will we ever have politicians who truly fight for average Americans?

[IHaveRespawned]

With Trump's America, we have high inflation, high fuel prices, high groceries and utilities, unchecked police powers, private corporate greed and influences in policies, and a mass surveillance state.

With the left, you have social engineering of communities, aggressive identity politics, illegal aliens first, dangerously relaxed criminal justice policies, PC police, indoctrination of our children, and an infringement on Second Amendment rights.

Neither are fighting for the average, everyday American citizen.

It seems like it gets more and more dystopian either way.

Under the Biden administration we had the highest inflation in 47 years… 9.1%. Trump now has it down 3.5%. Trump is trying to lower it. Now gas prices… the war in IRAN is causing that and when it’s over and it will be soon gas prices will drop. Gas prices are driven by greed not the president. Something happens and the price of a barrel of oil goes up and instantly the price at the pumps go up even though that gas was made from cheaper oil. And not Trump but greed.
Trump did tax cuts which put more money back in people’s pockets while the left want to raise taxes on the working class.
Get actual data and compare the left to the right and see the difference.

[strateguy632]

trump and his administration are doing exactly that. fighting so your vote matters for example "DHS separately confirmed that 275,000 noncitizens have been identified on voter rolls." getting me a huge tax rebate.

it is really silly of all things to criticise trump people picked to complain economy! they forgot trump is a businessman!

worse is the alternative the democrats like new hampshire who want the things you listed governemnt control and mass surveillance state.

[IHaveRespawned]

I want any and ALL partnerships with Planitir, whether federal, state, or local, eliminated NOW. A mass surveillance state is unacceptable, and should be a bipartisan issue.

Second, we must eliminate the anticompetitive schemes with fire apparatus manufacturers. We are not only in the midst of a critical nationwide volunteer firefighter shortage, but getting fire apparatus and other emergency vehicles has become very challenging.

Finally, but most importantly, is the affordability of basic essentials for the average, everyday American. Fuel has been pushing (and has even exceeded) $4 a gallon. We complained about that during the Xiden regime, but it is happening too under the Trump administration. Groceries are up 30%+. We are talking about basic essentials here: housing, food, utilities, etc... If we were to "Make America Great Again", that largely entails the quality of life for everyday American citizens.

[Agape93]

Nope, because those that could need a vote bloc big enough to get elected. To pander to the average, you cut out everyone else, meaning you have a smaller support base. Depending on your policies, you will alienate more people. Same when you add in religion, schooling, prior support or detraction and so on. If you want someone to fight for average people, the extreme ones need to die, and the average needs to be understood as a baseline.

President Trump is fighting for America every single day. Before he took office we had the highest gas prices, the highest inflation, the most fentanyl deaths , a spiraling stock market, 20 million illegal aliens, and a weak military. Before we had the war in Iran fuel prices were $ 2,50 and dropping, inflation was a manageable 2.5% and dropping, we have 4% unemployment which is about as low as it ever goes, deaths from fentanyl have been declining and our military is by far the strongest in the world and the stock marlet sets new records just about every week.

[IHaveRespawned]

It sure doesn't feel this way. Homeownership out of reach for younger generations, loved ones now relying on each other financially, being squeezed thin for groceries and healthcare, Flock cameras going up everywhere, an UNDERemployment job market, a decimation of the the tech. job market, and corruption all the way down to the local level.

Yeah Bidenflation, illegals, and leftist social engineering practices were a problem under the Xiden regime, but things are just as bad if not worse under a different regime now for some of the same but different reasons. It boils down to greed and jadedness of the elite ruling class now.

[exitseven]

yes, there are still problems but there are new factories being built by American and foreign companies that will provide good jobs and lower taxes and lower interest rates will help people afford houses. Two years ago the country was a mess. It will take more than a year ad a half to fix things, especially since the democrats are fighting every step of the way to stop America First policies an go back to the dark ages.
Imagine 5 dollars a gallon for gas just because some nutjob wants us all to buy a battery powered car?

[IHaveRespawned]

**"foreign companies"**... we need LESS foreign influences on our economy, military, and government. America first. America ONLY!

[exitseven]

Yes, that is true but foreign co companies like auto makers are relocating in the US to avoid paying tariffs

[strateguy632]

how can you @IHaveRespawned complain about health care after trump did so much to lower medicine prices. how can any American agree with your complaint?

[IHaveRespawned]

@strateguy632 the healthcare system is still a mess. Practices I go to have been dropped, leaving me to scout out new practices. My Medicare Advantage insurance provider denied me GLP-1 medications, despite the introduction of the GLP-1 bridge program, because I have sleep apnea. Sleep Apnea is actually an indication for Zepbound. Most of my medications my insurance provider will not cover. My psychiatrist does not take insurance, and a lot of mental healthcare providers don't because of the hassle. Then the question becomes, what is the real point of healthcare insurance if they are not covering treatments and medications I am needing the most? They are calling the shots, yet they are holding back. Our healthcare system is still VERY broken.

[exitseven]

it is a mess but Obamacare made it worse. At least the insurance mandate was repealed. I think it was unconstitutional anyway.
I had a total hip replacement in January. It took 4 weeks for me to get the operation after I saw the doctor and he told me that I needed it. I was in the hospital for 1 day and then I went home. I could have got home health care but my wife took care of me. I did have 12 weeks of physical therapy. The whole thig coast me 20 bucks for the copay and another 20 bucks for the meds.
I have made surt that I had good health insurance.

[Jersey2]

Trump is doing that but the ones against him use propaganda to make you think otherwise. My concern though is who comes after Trump? Who will stand up to the bastards that will hit them with fake lawsuits, smear campaigns and daily propaganda. Who will stand up for us. Who can tolerate that type of abuse.

[NaultD]

Don't let political officials buy stocks. They can only have a us government based retirement plan about 5x the middle amarican income. Still want capable leaders not to be bought out by foreign party's.

[BonzoInBitburg]

Nope. They are more interested in being important than useful.

[Cidknee]

Fuck no! And if lies seased to exist nobody would run for office.

[Alex-Snow]

Good points! That is why we should not elect billionaires for president

[fishbone77]

We have high inflation because Biden printed trillions during covid.

[canamlusciouslad73]

Sure. Elect Democratic Socialists. Otherwise, NEVER !!!

[msc545]

No, never. Politicians fight for the wealthy in order to enrich themselves
