Nothing says 'golden age' like gas over $4, endless foreign wars, skyrocketing costs, election denialism, and withholding millions of pages of the Epstein files.

Trump likely won't say anything about the war with Iran, which he has badly failed. He likely will have nothing to say about affordability issues, which he lies is a hoax. He can only whine and lie about how the 2020 elections were stolen from him, all as a pretext to undermine the coming midterms.

Ossoff: "Here's what's going to happen tonight: the world's most famous sore loser will deliver a prime-time presidential sour grapes address to pursue his 6-year-old grievances about the 2020 election, while his war in the Middle East spirals out of control & the cost of living continues to rise.."

NBC: “But even as other costs fell, food prices climbed higher over the month. “4 of the 6 major grocery store food group indexes increased in June,” BLS said in its report. But core inflation..was unchanged ..a worrying sign of how sticky higher prices may be outside of energy prices themselves”

Quote of the Day: “No one gives a shit about housing.” ---President Donald Trump to House Speaker Mike Johnson

JUST IN: Disappointing June jobs report under Trump. The U.S. added just 57,000 jobs — well below the 115,000 expected. Hospitality lost 61,000 jobs. April and May numbers revised down by 74,000. Wage growth (3.5%) is lagging behind inflation (~4%). Trump’s economy is stalling.

President Trump was supposed to sign the largest bipartisan housing bill in 30 years into law today. He’s refusing to do so until his election-rigging bill passes. This is Trump 101: Trump first, Americans last. He’s a disgrace to this nation.

TRUMP: “The numbers were great. I love the inflation.”🤔 Trump admits his pointless war is making your life more expensive, and he loves it.
