Trump says he is going to “make America affordable again.” It’s a pledge he made frequently during the campaign. And now, after dropping it from his lexicon for more than eight months, he’s saying it again as polls show voters rank the economy and cost of living as their top concern and blame Trump’s policies for making things worse.

Thus far, Trump has spent far more time boasting about how great the economy and stock market are doing than acknowledging any economic anxiety.

    I just still don’t understand why the stupid mythology of “Republicans gud at 'conomy” continues to persist. It was stupid pre-Taco; it’s positively delusional after his first term.

    Same goes for the dumb mythology of running the government like a business and putting a “businessman” in charge, LOL. Not that Pedonald really counts as a businessman, as low as a bar as that truly is…
