Trump Calls Economy “Unbelievable” — Voters Agree, Can’t Believe How Bad It’s Gotten

WASHINGTON, D.C. — President Trump once again praised the economy this week as “unbelievable,” a choice of words that, for once, most Americans agree with. After all, who could believe a president who promised prices would drop “on Day 1” has somehow made milk feel like a luxury item nine months later?

Trump’s tariffs and tax cuts have produced an economy that looks less like the “Golden Age” he promised and more like a clearance aisle at a going-out-of-business sale. Jobs are scarce, groceries keep climbing, and even middle-class families are beginning to wonder which bills can safely go unpaid this month.

A Fox News poll drove the knife deeper, finding 52% of voters say Trump has made the economy worse. Observers note this is the same percentage that once panned Joe Biden’s handling of inflation—meaning Trump has now tied the guy he swore he’d outperform on “literally everything.”

It’s a far cry from Trump’s campaign promise: “When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on Day 1.” Americans are still waiting for that magical moment, now penciled into calendars somewhere around the year 2089.
