    Ahhh, yes. There he is, folks. The Man of the People, with his finger on the pulse of the working class.

    I have no idea how anyone still supports this clown.

    Tell that to my two elderly friends who are currently unhoused and wandering the streets because there’s no fucking shelter available.

    I genuinely hope that orange pus sack dies on July 4th. It’d be hella poetic.

    The advisors Trump surrounds himself with don’t give a fuck about housing, so of course he never hears about it. At the same time, it’s like the #1 issue for working people! I have no idea how people can still vote Republican in 2026…

      This is it exactly, and it’s one of the lesser discussed facts of income inequality. Eventually, when the people at the top are the only ones with money, they become the only ones spending money, and thus they are the only ones catered to. Everyday people get priced out of basic things because what’s the point in making things affordable for the poors? When one rich person will spend more than 1000 poor people, wouldn’t it be better to appease the rich person?

      See places like Vegas or Disney for very visible examples of this happening.
