Summary
Democratic lawmakers, led by Sen. Elizabeth Warren, criticized Trump for failing to address rising food costs despite campaign promises to lower prices “immediately.”
In a letter, they accused Trump of focusing on mass deportations and January 6 pardons instead of tackling grocery inflation, which rose 1.8% in 2024, with egg prices up 36.8%.
Trump’s administration defended its actions, citing efforts to reduce inflation by cutting energy costs.
Call him a liar. To his face. To his subordinates. To his mother. To his cousins. Keep calling him a liar until he understands he is the Dishonest Don.
And cutting energy costs will rid poultry farms of bid flu how exactly?
I’m so tired of Democrats taking “the high road.” The high road doesn’t fucking exist anymore and y’all are just fucking everyone over. Trump is literally on the road to destroying this country and Democrats are trying to do things “the right way.”
Fuck that shit. It doesn’t work anymore. They’re just accepting the premise of assholes. I hate to say it, but unless they fight back with the same kind of energy than they’re fucked. If you try and do shit the right way Trump will just undo everything with a wave of his tiny hands.
Democratic National Committee, don’t just stick to your old tired playbook of telling everyone that Trump is bad and doing the things he said he’d do. It didn’t work last time.
DNC, start immediately telling all Americans why this is wrong, what you will do different with the executive power, and keep up that messaging in a media blitz to win back all the working class voters who didn’t show up last time. Get a plan now for who you want to run on your ticket, and push them into the spotlight to advocate for us with progressive policies that help the working class. I’m a dreamer, but for the love of all things good, please let them be an actual progressive.
“We are the Democratic Party. Democrats are fighting for a better, fairer, and brighter future for every American: rolling up our sleeves, empowering grassroots voters, and organizing everywhere to build a better America.”
Really? Fucking prove it, then! Be the party of brawlers and stop maintaining “decorum”. MAGA is playing dirty because you’re weak and they know you won’t do shit. Fight for the working class like your mission statement alleges.
So tired of backsliding to the right on this tilted table.
Meanwhile all lawmakers had gains in stocks larger than the average Joe. The fuck they care about prices
Oh hey look the Democrats are crying about something but not actually doing anything
Hard to do anything in an elected government if you weren’t elected.
And they didn’t get elected because they spent the last four years crying and (mostly) not actually doing anything.
A rapist who lies to the courts has its base of voters shocked when he doesn’t cum through on his promises.
What’s with the fucking eggs, why does everyone focus on fucking eggs. There’s more food than God damn eggs for fucks sake
Never mind, on the next election we’ll vote for someone else, to lower the price of vegetables at that time
The con man who sells shoes, NFTs, launched a meme coin and bankrupted a casino was never going to lower prices on anything. Fools got played!
When I read talking points like this, I think about: Who would they convince? I don’t think many people honestly believe Democrats had a capable plan to fix these grocery prices in the first month of a Kamala presidency. Yes, Trump over-promised, and unfortunately, that was probably the right tactic.
I’m still not absolving voters for falling for such snake oil though. Sometimes when grandma clicks the “You have a virus” prompt for the 400th time you have to start blaming her.
Actually, the last important bit to me is who exactly is saying this. Recalling from memory, Elizabeth Warren once put forward a suggestion to require that 40% of a company’s board be voted in by employees. It’s very possible that with a less corrupt, profit-seeking corporate landscape we wouldn’t be in this situation. So even more than Kamala she may have credit to blame others for such things.
SLAMMED
How do I filter out those stupid meaning ngless words? Under fire, roasted destroyed… I just can’t anymore according to headlines Trump should be molecular paste by now.
THE WALLS ARE CLOSING IN ON TRUMP!
