was self inflicted. We were clearly getting the economy under control and inflation was decreasing. That is, until Trump an his ill advised corrupted staff decided to destroy our country. And the sad part, is he actually thinks he is doing the right thing. And the MAGATS are falling right in line, with absolutely no proof these shenanigans will work. I thiought the next 4 years were going to be bad, but never at this level of bad.

Be prepared for a f'ed up summer, and loss of income due to upcoming supplies and prices. Keep your spending to a minimum. Try to keep your job, if you can.

If you want to survive the next 4 years, there will be sacrifices we all must make, until he leaves office. If he leaves the office. Grrrrrrr
