Yes, all Presidents have done things that cost taxpayers extra money, but we currently have a President who has a billionaire businessman gutting Federal agencies, freezing funds that have already been approved, threatening Federal workers with
possible firings. Find waste and genuine fraud, I'm all for that, but you still need to follow the law.
I will continue to say this until I'm blue (not Blu) in the face..... Trump won this election on many different promises and one of the biggest and most often repeated by him was he was going to bring down prices and bring them down fast. I did not expect them to drop immediately, but he is doing nothing to keep that promise.
It's great to root out true fraud and waste, but individual working class people are not going to see any tangible benefit for themselves. It's not going to reduce their grocery bills.
Trump won't even talk about the economy or what he plans on doing to help with the cost of living.
I'm happy to keep you smiling WHM.
