“Can we just get healthcare”: Trump criticized for “bragging” about 24-karat gold Oval Office décor as Americans struggle to pay bills

“Can we just get healthcare”: Trump criticized for “bragging” about 24-karat gold Oval Office décor as Americans struggle to pay bills
“Think of this video when your grocery bill cleans out your bank account.”
Before the 2016 election, I was a kind person. At the age of 54 I could honestly say that over the course of my life they were only two people that I hated, and by then they had both passed away.
Since then, it seems that when I advocate to feed the hungry, care for the sick, or house the homeless, I’m accused of being a socialist or worse. The last thing they will do is acknowledge that I’m actually quoting their Jesus.
As we slip into a full-blown dictatorship, where the leader is honoring himself by spending hundreds of millions of dollars to produce a ballroom had called, pleading everything in the White House, I’m enjoying watching how Trump voters are slowly starting to realize they got screwed. To be clear, I am not happy that anyone is suffering, that would be unkind. But as I see, farmers acknowledging that the terrorists are putting them out of business or other Trump voters talking about how they are losing their insurance because they already know it’s going up and they can’t afford to pay a dollar more, I am out of effs to give.
I used to ask the rhetorical question “what would it take to come to their senses“ and now I’m starting to think we’re approaching that point. Where they literally can’t pay their bills and no help is going to arrive for them. This is reflected in recent polling as well. They have had enough.

Looks like things are gonna get crazy once the tariffs fully work themselves out in the economy. A lot of things we take for granted are going to cost a lot more.
And of course, the narrative will be that those countries are punishing Americans because they wouldn’t just accept Trump’s tariffs. So frustrating and difficult to untangle with people who don’t follow politics.
As an aside, I’m looking for more progressives and further left people to help me keep track of the news at /r/Left_News

Republicans constantly tanking the economy and people continue to vote against their own interests.

Maybe you should not elect fascists then…
But I guess it’s okay to have a dictator king, as long as he tells you, you live in the greatest country in the world and you can say racist slurs without consequences.

That video looks like the kind of thing the DEA posts after they bust a narco kingpin.

Bragging about gold leafed trim prices from Home Depot instead of doing his damned job. Can we fire him yet?

Republicans want to take us back to the good old days, when most people were hungry and malnourished and most families could count on losing at least one child before they reached adulthood

Let me ask you something… Do you think someone would gild their residence if they thought they were leaving in 3 years?

Poorly can’t connect Trump’s spending to their grocery bills.
Think of this when you pay taxes. This is directly what it’s going towards

Nope. This is where your taxpayer dollars go.

Turning the white house into a gaudy shit show. Sucks for the next person who has to get rid of all the garbage he’s adding.

No healthcare, but just wait till you see the big beautiful ballroom!

He is also having a 250 million ballroom built, I don’t think he plans on leaving, ever.

You know who really should be criticized, though? The stupid Americans who voted for this self-centered moron when it was blatantly obvious he’d never give two shits how any American is struggling. Like, that Trump is bragging about this is not surprising one bit.

Just a raping and pillaging as usual.

>On Truth Social, and reposted on X, Trump shared a video highlighting the golden decorations. He then claimed that visiting leaders often reacted in awe.
Yes, in awe of the absurdity of this.
As I sit here in a shitty public housing studio apartment in a high-rise that lost half its maintenance and janitorial crew you bask in your “24-karat Gold” office trying to make me homeless because I’m on SSDI and Medicaid / Medicare as well.

We out here resorting to about every generic brand of everything imaginable and still paying out the ass – this King of Dunce bragging on guilding the White House with 24k gold and building a fucking $100 million ballroom.
The Republican Party sucks.

You mean like Nero fiddled while Rome burned? Or how Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette lived a lavish lifestyle while the French peasants were starving? We know how their stories ended…
But what America REALLY needs right now is a new coin with the emperor’s face on it. That will be great…sorry, I think I just vomited.

If you think the Oval Office is gaudy, wait until the Epstein Memorial Ballroom is finished.

Trump does not care about Americans. Too busy playing golf, sending memes and decorating Oval Office with more gold
VirtuaFighter6 on
Don’t forget all those golfing trips to his golf resorts. Hmmm, I wonder if he gives us the fed discount or does he jack up rates?

Yes but are marginalized peoples hurting and are the libs being owned? If yes to both questions, take more of my rights maga daddy! /s

Anyone who approves of his extreme spending on his own pet projects for himself needs to realize there will be huge cuts to healthcare , veterans and emergency relief. He is ONLY focused on himself and amassing riches that he can flaunt. Why any average citizen would approve is puzzling.

Surprised to not see more posts. Reminds me of a poorly run monarchy.

As the impact of Trump’s Big, Beautiful Shutdown sinks in, the head felon will get even less popular. No President has ever been so underwater with their approval ratings! Another WIN for Trump!
Just a thought, would you decorate everything in gold if you where going to leave in 3 years. Seems to me Trump is setting in for a much longer timeframe

Marie Trumpenette strikes again.
The mad king has doomed us all.
