And the thing, I do not believe it would be possible to impress this on Donald Trump.
But it's not a bad idea for him to acknowledge the fact that people are unhappy.
You know, this is something I used to say through the whole Biden administration.
People were going, you know, the inflation is killing us.
And Biden's people would come out and say, no, no, you're really happy.
Things are great.
I thought like, you know, I think people know when they can't make the rent.
I think people know when they can't get their kids the Christmas presents they want.
I think they know when they're not buying the same foods they would be able to afford before.
So if people are saying they're unhappy about the economy, they probably are.
And there's probably no chart you can point to and no...
statistic you can point to that's going to make him feel better.
So it wouldn't be a bad thing if Trump could muster up just that little mustard seed of humility.
And I know, don't laugh when I say Trump and humility in the same sentence, but if he could just muster that little bit of humility to say, hey, I know this is not going as fast as I wish it would, but it is going to go faster and this is why.
And I think that that's just something that is not in Trump's repertoire,
And yet I think it would go a long way to just say, you know, it's not about it's not always about Donald Trump.
It's sometimes about the people and the people do feel bad about the economy.
I'm a little surprised by that.
It does seem to me that things have picked up that not only has has inflation gone down, but wages have actually gone up and outstripped inflation.
But apparently people are not feeling that yet.
