A new survey has found that Americans are being squeezed by higher prices as they head into the holiday season, forcing them to cut back on gifts and delay purchases because of Donald Trump's faltering economy.
The Associated Press--NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll found that a vast majority of U.S. adults have noticed increased prices for groceries, electricity, and holiday gifts in recent months. Roughly half say it is harder to afford presents, and similar numbers say they're postponing big purchases or trimming nonessential spending more than usual.
Those bleak findings come as Trump has been downplaying concerns about the state of the economy, while simultaneously urging families to scale back on Christmas presents for their children. At a Pennsylvania event on Tuesday, he told supporters, “You can give up certain products,” citing “pencils” as an example before turning to children’s toys: “You don’t need 37 dolls for your daughter.
"Aw man, my choices are slightly-less-shit and shit? I better not choose at all and then complain very loudly if I get shit instead of slightly-less-shit. At least I didn't make a choice though out of protest about Israel support. Surely both sides are the same."
Kamala: Both sides should cease fire.
Trump: Israel should kill off the rest of the Palestinians. Also here's $80B to Argentina for some fucking reason.
