What is wrong with this country?

https://www.politico.com/news/2025/09/13/trump-is-selling-a-strong-economy-voters-arent-buying-it-00561986

We're freak'n can't afford to eat. We don't need Democrats to scream and holler. We just need people to stop being led by the GOP. They love the GOP even though the price of food is outrageous. They love dictatorships. I'm in the wrong country.

Raw Story's headlines never match their article. They link to other another article which doesn't match the headline. Apparently, Americans don't GAF about out of control inflation and out of control everything else. They don't give a damn about out of control masked men. Doxxing. Harassment, Wasted funds for the NG. Wasted funds for this and that. Wasted funds for AF2 etc. Cronyism etc.

The gap between the percentage of people who think the nation is headed in the right direction instead of the wrong direction is about 15 percentage points today, compared to about 31 points at the same point in Biden’s 2022 cycle and nearly 28 percent at this point in Trump’s first term, according to Real Clear Politics. Republicans’ voter registration advantage is also expanding nationwide, while Democrats’ favorability remains 27 points under water compared to 13 percent for Republicans.
