I'm not sure it even matters if there is an actual problem, as long as there is a perception of a problem in his voters.

This has been true of every major policy ‘lock in’ topic for both parties for at least a decade, if not more.

Gun control, abortion, immigration (legal and illegal), taxation/gov’t spending, affirmative action (aka DEI), etc.

Trump is really good at pushing buttons and generating outrage though. Not unexpected for a reality TV show star.

It’s sad how addicted people are to his button pushing. I’ve got an elderly family member with dementia who can’t go more than 2 hours without watching a outrage video about Trump. You know the ones on YouTube, still doing hourly updates on russiagate and other “legal analysis” around Trump prosecutions, still. She lost much of her life savings because these YouTube “experts” explained how Trump would crash the market when in actuality, from 2016 to today, the market has actually gone up. A lot. Thanks medias touch or whoever it is for destroying the sanity and financial security of so many American seniors. What a business model.

How did the market going up lose her money?

The loss of potential gains?

If you read the comment carefully, it sounds like she sold early and put into things like CDs which lost money to inflation.
