Trump Confronts Glaring New Crisis Of His Own Making

Donald’s economy starts to collapse due to his policies, while he and the GOP face their biggest political roadblock yet

Donald Trump is having one of the worst weeks, politically speaking, of his entire presidency — and he’s ending it in total disaster.

For starters

Trump announced he’s building a $200 million ballroom inside the White House — which he claims will be funded by “private donors.”

But let’s be real

They’ll find a way to make sure we, the taxpayers, foot the bill — just like we did for his Scotland golf trip.

All while he slashes Medicaid and cuts social programs to “balance the budget” — a.k.a. give himself and his billionaire donors tax breaks.

Plus

This morning’s jobs report was brutal.

Far fewer jobs were added than predicted in July, and unemployment also came in higher than expected.

Even in Las Vegas, tipped workers say their income has “fallen by half” due to a steep drop in tourism.

What we’re seeing

This is the delayed but inevitable reaction to Trump’s tariffs (and his anti-foreigner, anti-immigrant policies).

Less tourism. Fewer jobs. Lower wages. And higher unemployment.

And just to make it worse

Trump reinstated another round of “Liberation Day” tariffs this morning — which instantly tanked the stock market.

P.S. Don’t look at your portfolios today, unless you want to cry!
