A "roaring economy," Trump said near the start of his record-breaking 1-hour, 47-minute speech, "is roaring like never before." He vowed to maintain unilateral tariffs on foreign goods despite an adverse Supreme Court decision.
But Americans tell pollsters, in survey after survey, that they are not satisfied with the economy 13 months into Trump's second presidency. Most Americans disapprove of how he's handling the economy (57%) and inflation (65%), according to a recent ABC News/Washington Post/Ipsos poll.
- Views on Trump’s handling of the economy tilt negative (41% approve, 57% disapprove). Americans have more negative views of Trump’s handling of tariffs on imported goods (34% approve, 64% disapprove) and inflation (32%, 65%).
- A plurality (48%) of Americans say the economy has gotten worse since Trump became president in January 2025, compared to 29% that say it has gotten better.

Should be interesting to see if trump and the republican controlled media can gaslight people into thinking affordability isn't a problem.
But given it actually affects people, like how he totally bungled the response to the trump virus that killed a million Americans.

I know unemployment is bad, affordability is getting worse, we are on the brink of war with Iran and pedos are running the white house but have you at least said thank you that the stock market is better than ever?

I don't know why this is such a surprise. Trump has been talking about temporary, half-decade of pain as the economy is restructured so that America can have a thousand year long golden age as the rest of the world sucks on rocks.

This is all Biden's economy. We were literally eating the cats and dogs and the little babies in the street it was so bad under Biden. And now, Trump has turned it all around. This is the GREATEST economic miracle in the history of mankind. We have an economy that is the ENVY of the WORLD. Donald Trump has rescued the American people like Christ the Savior saved humankind with his sacrifice upon the cross.

Roaring in pain, at the overall insanity of it all.

Trump is obsessed with the Gilded Age, a period where the American economy made a fuckload of money for the rich while the poor completely ate shit. I'm pretty sure he only likes it because of the name association with gold.
So, of course he'd want to emulate it.
