The writer at the conservative tree house site wrote years ago the Republicans prefer to be a slight minority party because they get maximum leverage and no accountability for when things go wrong. What a contemptible approach to politics.

I’m afraid of this as well. They do not make sense to me and what they do. Trumps economic plans are our only help possibly but I’m not sure there will be enough of an improvement for the moderates to ignore the rest.
The gains over the last couple days help, but they are in no way enough.

36 Trillion in debt means we are slaves and something has to be done. It's unsubstainable. People should be livid that 40-50% of all your income goes to some form of tax.
He was ranked very highly in the polls for the economy and how he handled it over Biden. However most people won’t see the potential long term gains nor do I feel they will be here by the time the midterms come around. Keep in mind none of the tariff deals are even done or signed yet and won’t be for months most likely. The UK deal is a framework at best and covers only a few commodities. Onshoring jobs and factories will take years but if there are some good signs then maybe.
What does doing well mean? I can’t read the article because the paywall but what I hear from everyone is the cost of goods are too high and it will impact the economy at some point. People talk to said we’re cutting back on going out to eat because food prices are killing them. Look at housing prices and vehicle prices, you’re looking at $300,000 for descent house and a car. Kids see no future and that won’t help. Trump ran on bringing down prices not increasing prices to onshore jobs and factories. People want relief not more opportunities to work because anyone working already is. I get this could cause wages to rise if there is a worker shortage but by how much, likely a few percentage points and will people onshore factories of there are no workers here for them or will they keep them in China or India where there are tons of people willing to work. It’s complex.
POTUS can get it rolling and implemented on his own. But then its up to congress to make it an actual law. That's the difficult part, since so many of them would be voting against their own self-interest. But the fact that it has very low or zero chance of Congress actually making it permanent doesnt mean Trump should just not bother with the EO.

to be honest I haven't really seen much change in prices.

I buy from an egg farm, where the eggs are still warm when I buy them. 1.5 months ago, we were paying ~$15/flat (30 eggs/flat). Last week I paid $5/flat. So the prices have come way down, but it may take a bit before that is reflected in grocery store prices.
That wasn’t a knock at what Trump has done and I wasn’t saying Trump made prices increase. I agree I have t seen an increase and what I’ve been hearing isn’t new to Trump but just in general. Trump did promise to bring prices down and I hope he’s successful at that and I think that needs to be number one priority along with the budget. I think he realizes that and is focused on those things.
