A few years ago, my kids’ Disney Plus subscription cost $80 annually. Now its costing me $160. This must mean I am twice as optimistic about the future. 🙄 https://t.co/xj1D4eHZDx

I have a question: how dumb does this imbecile Hassett and Fox News think we are? Trump is flailing, his polls are cratering for a reason. America sees right through him at this point. He’s a fraud, a grifter and he’s gonna go down in flames as the worst president ever. Fact.

Does this moron even hear himself….yeah people are spending more on everything not because they want to buy more and have money to buy more…it’s because everything is more expensive because of Trump’s policies and his war on Iran https://t.co/75ZXPm3Umu

In no world is spending more to get less because of government corruption and incompetence a sign of economic optimism. https://t.co/xjw6fpBh4X

This is sick. He’s treating people paying more for gas, groceries, and necessities as evidence of economic optimism instead of evidence that survival is getting more expensive.
