Rally-style series of boasts does not include much in the way of plans to address affordability crisis

Donald Trump on Wednesday used a nationally-televised address to deliver a campaign-style rant in which he blamed his predecessor for the economic woes Americans are feeling a year into his presidency while offering little in the way of proposals to address the higher prices caused in large part by the massive tariffs he has placed on almost all American imports.

Speaking from the Diplomatic Reception Room at the White House, Trump opened by claiming to have “inherited a mess” that he was now “fixing.”

What followed was a partisan rant indistinguishable from the signature rallies that have been the centerpiece of his political movement, in which he rattled off a list of grievances while blaming his predecessor for the state of the country nearly a full year after he took the oath of office.

    Oh, FFS, Donvict is such a limpdick.

    This economy had all the right indicators last year and this stooge inherited one of the best situations a President has ever been handed. Then, he and all his morons completely fucked it all up.

    And still: about 30-some percent of this country cannot see what is plain as the nose on your face…and still support this complete dumbass.
