The world’s only one man media empire
The border is secure, the government has been slashed, tariffs are in place, Most Favored Nation status has been achieved with major brands, and the Big Beautiful Bill is law. That leaves only two questions that matter: Will this work and will Americans feel the positive impacts in time for the midterms? Last week, President… Continue reading The clock is ticking on the economy, but there are certainly positive signs as the new year rolls in
Progressives ignored high prices for years, mocked those who worried about inflation, and for decades have waged a war on consumerism, but suddenly, we’re supposed to believe the American Dream is measured in cheap plastic dolls. Over the past several weeks, President Donald Trump has been heavily criticized from the left and some on the… Continue reading Trump, the affordability scam, and the truth that we buy too much junk
