Poll: 75% say doing too little to lower prices.......

I can't figure out what is doing to lower prices--if anything? But whatever, it is NOT working!

CNN: Trump sending troops is unpopular, they donâ€™t buy his argument that itâ€™s about crime, heâ€™s also underwater on immigrationâ€¦ and ðŸ‡ºðŸ‡¸ know heâ€™s raising prices not lowering them.

You can't lie to your own checking account when you leave the checkout line.

He does absolutely nothing but culture war flame fanning.

He is a complete fraud on every level. Just a hollow, empty shell that is incapable of doing anything but parroting bullshit 24/7.

The price of an ounce of gold is again $100 higher than last week. It is within $50 of the formerly impossible $4000 per ounce level. That’s something like $120 per gram. If this keeps up, people will have to mortgage their house to be able to afford a wedding ring.
