!The TRUTH About Trump’s Economy
Donald Trump sold himself as a “business genius.” Please. America received a con man running the country the same way he ran his casinos: bleeding people dry, ducking accountability, and walking away from the wreckage. The result is Trumpflation: a national shakedown where billionaires pocket the winnings while we get stuck with the bill.
Forget the myth of “bringing jobs back.” The real legacy of Trumpflation is shuttered shops, rotting crops, and kitchen tables where parents ask how to stretch one meal into three. It’s sabotage dressed up as patriotism.
The Reality of Trumpflation
Trump’s tariffs and reckless spending create chaos. Prices soar. Jobs evaporate. Stability collapses
Take Katrina Golden, who owns Lil Mama Sweets Treats in Augusta, Georgia. Trump’s tariffs sent her costs through the roof. “I would have loved to stockpile, but my bottom line wouldn’t allow me to,” she explained. Every order risked wiping her out. That’s Trumpflation: the “art of the deal” turned into the art of economic suffocation.
Small Businesses Under Siege
Trump claims to be a champion of small business. Tell that to the entrepreneurs he kneecapped. Outdoor Element in Colorado, once thriving, now sinks in quicksand. “I’m no longer trying to thrive,” CEO Mike Mojica said. “I’m trying to survive.”
In Texas, Sue Schulz of What’s Poppin’ popcorn described her shelves sitting empty while tariffs whiplashed her supply chain. Trump’s “policies” aren’t a proven fiscal strategy. They’re reality-TV stunts that leave real people bankrupt.
Workers and Families Laid Low
While Trump calls himself the savior of American manufacturing, evidence nationwide shows otherwise. In Michigan, 1,200 steelworkers at Cleveland-Cliffs were cut loose. Union leaders put it bluntly: “We’re watching an industry collapse.” Trumpflation is continuing to bury the steel industry next to his bankrupt casinos.
And job loss doesn’t stop at the paycheck. Leslie Desmond, a Michigan housing analyst, now bartends to feed her kids and pays out of pocket for her sons’ asthma meds. Nicole Rice, a disabled communications specialist, summed it up: her “income, health care, and dignity” vanished overnight. That’s Trumpflation: dignity traded for desperation.
Restaurants and Farms in Collapse
Restaurants are bleeding under Trumpflation. Colorado owner Steve Hammer watched costs explode: bowls up 25 percent, gloves up 20 percent. He stockpiled tuna just to keep doors open. “Restaurant owners may have no choice but to raise prices,” warned Michelle Korsmo of the National Restaurant Association. Translation: Americans get priced out of dinner while Trump brags about “winning.”
On farms, once-proud conservative pillars are collapsing. Mississippi farmer Ray Crawford stared at mountains of unsold soybeans: “We don’t know what the hell to do with them.” Zero sales to China this year. Generations of work undone. Trumpflation doesn’t just bust balance sheets. It torches the family farm.
A Crisis of Assembly Lines and Kitchen Tables
Trump’s America First rhetoric ended with pink slips and empty plates. In July alone, hundreds more lost jobs in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Families slash grocery budgets, ration prescriptions, and hope rent clears. Communities erode while Trump cashes checks and plays golf.
Trumpflation is economic arson: light the match, sell the ashes, and blame the victims.
Trumpflation Demands Rebellion
Donald Trump promised prosperity. Trumpflation delivered chaos, despair, and broken dreams. The costs—lost homes, shuttered businesses, stolen futures—are not side effects. They are the plan.
We cannot meet Trumpflation with resignation. We meet it with rebellion. Democracy doesn’t belong to billionaires hiding behind golden doors or politicians staging crises for clout. It belongs to us. And when Trumpflation tries to grind us down, we rise sharper, louder, and more relentless.
Trumpflation isn’t “greatness.” It’s the same con he pulled with steaks, vodka, and casinos, only now the collateral damage is an entire nation. And we’re done footing the bill.
How to Fight Back Against Trumpflation
Outrage without action is surrender. Here’s how to turn fury into fire:
1. Contact Representatives
Light up their phones. Flood their inboxes. Corner them at town halls. Tell them: stop Trump’s sabotage or pack their bags. Use Common Cause to find your reps.
2. Support Food Security
Trumpflation starves families while billionaires feast. Volunteer, donate, and keep neighbors fed.
3. Join Advocacy Campaigns
Don’t just gripe about Trumpflation. Mobilize against it.
4. Share Your Story
Your lived experience is ammunition. Tell your story of Trumpflation to advocacy groups and blast it on social media. Flood feeds with #Trumpflation until they can’t ignore us.
5. Organize Locally
Protest, rally, strike, vote. Democracy isn’t polite. It’s people in motion. Find or build local coalitions ready to fight back.
🔥 Trumpflation is bleeding America dry, but we don’t have to take it. Speak out. Show up. Rebel. Because the only thing scarier to Trump and his cronies than an empty wallet is an America on its feet, furious and unafraid.
