Trump keeps telling us about how this is the greatest economy ever!

Not only is that completely delusional, even with MAGA believing everything he says, the rest of the people KNOW he's lying.

Trump on the signing of the bill just now.

Not on a teleprompter reading a script from a sane writer Instead  an unhinged screed  from a defiant man.

Telling us that the Ds were doing this to give 1.7 trillion of our money to illegal immigrants, criminals and rapists. Going on and on about how the stock market made another record high today thanks to him.  Insanely, blaming the Ds for the stopped Snap payments that HE intentionally stopped in order to exploit the shutdown to punish his hated enemies.........people that didn't vote for him and anybody that opposes him. 

Just reporting PART of what he actually said tonight. 

Let's fact check just 1 item,  his continuing insistence that gas prices are down to $2 thanks to him (down from $4).

This map directly below is updated constantly.

It shows that gas prices are around the same as they were when Trump took office.

White House says October jobs and inflation data may never be released because of the shutdown

https://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/12/white-house-october-data-release.html

++++++++++++++++++

The REAL reason we may never see the data is that it was/is BAD news. Like everything else that Trump doesn't like, he does everything in his power to censor/block it. If it was GOOD news, you bet we would see it.

Trump is an opportunist!

He exploits bad situations to impose his agenda's, always making them even worse.

Like with the SNAP money for poor Americans. The USDA money was always there but Trump ordered them not to pay it because the shutdown, that was already hurting many people allowed him to. This allowed him to maximize the damage.

Or suing the Wall Street Journal for $10 billion because they published the truth that he didn't like. This just makes it worse.......FOR HIM but his delusional mind in this case thinks that his omnipotence can bully the universe with impunity. 

In this case, use the shutdown to justify not releasing the bad jobs and inflation numbers(from his bad policies).

I seriously suspect that the numbers we do get from now on, could get tainted, the same way that everything he touches does.
