Trump faces heat on debt Iran beef and high prices

Trump’s getting roasted today for his disastrous beef policy, the debt hit $40 trillion because of his “big beautiful bill,” he stepped-in-it in Iran, and he’s weeks away from failing his mid-terms in November.

Trump ran on 3 major promises:

1. Lower prices
2. No new wars
3. Cut the national debt.

1. Everything cost more today under Trump (gas, food)
2. We are at war with Iran
3. Debt at all time high: $40 trillion.

Imagine if the media actually just told this story.
