💬 In a few words:

Trump voters are feeling the pinch of high prices, with many blaming tariffs and corporations, not just President Trump. They're still mostly supportive, though!

More details:

Well, I never! It seems even folks who voted for our dear President Trump are starting to notice that their wallets are feeling a bit… lighter. Apparently, a simple breakfast can set you back a whole $20! Can you believe it, sweetie? Back in my day, you could feed a family of four for that!

My Juicy Gossip:

These Trump voters, bless their hearts, are starting to grumble. They’re talking about how everything from their morning eggs to their grocery bills has gone sky-high. Some are even saying things like the President’s little tariff games have made prices jump! Oh, the drama!

"Breakfast is $20 no matter how you slice it."

Can you imagine? My neighbor Mildred said her coffee cost more than her first car! It’s enough to make you want to just stay home and eat toast, isn't it?

What's *Really* Going On (According to the News):

Now, these folks who voted for Trump gave him a pretty decent score on handling the cost of living, averaging around a 6 out of 10. Most of them still stick by him, saying things like, 'He's not a magician, what do you expect?' They think his policies will sort things out eventually, or that maybe it's not his fault at all. Lots of them are pointing fingers at big corporations and other 'structural issues' – you know, the usual suspects when things go wrong.

Some voters mentioned that while gas prices have dropped, other things like meat and coffee are making their grocery carts lighter in a bad way. A few also grumbled about those tariffs causing problems, doubling or tripling prices on some things. He’s been trying to tout his economic wins, saying he’s making things affordable again, but the numbers show job growth slowing and prices still high. Heavens to Betsy!

  • Some blame the President’s tariffs directly for higher prices.
  • Others think corporate greed is the real villain.
  • A few believe the President can't possibly control everything.

Why I Just Can't Even Today:

Honestly, the whole thing is just exhausting! First, they say one thing, then another. The President is out there saying affordability is a 'con job' by the other side, then he’s promising everything will be sunshine and roses next year. Make up your mind, dear! And these voters, bless them, they’re still trying to believe. It’s all very confusing, and frankly, it’s making me need a stronger cup of tea. Where did I put my good china?

It just goes to show, sweetie, that no matter who you vote for, pinching pennies is no fun for anyone. Now, who wants another slice of pie?

Grandma's waiting on your verdict

Pour dear Grandma another cup by tapping how this gossip feels. She can't finish her knitting until you whisper your take.
