I’ve been lurking on r/Conservative to try and figure out why they back Trump so hard, call it research.

They say that prices have gone down in stores; I have not seen that, things have remained the same or gotten more expensive in my experience.

Gas prices have remained…the same, I haven’t noticed a difference.

I’ve noticed that companies that perform services are now using Tarrifs to quote insane prices wether or not they were actually affected by it.

I know the main reason is immigrants, the absolutely terrible things we’re doing to them gets thier rocks off. But if they’re so adamant about prices going down and the economy doing well they’d have to be experiencing that themselves? They wouldn’t be saying that so confidently to each other in an echo chamber unless it was happening.

So where the fuck are prices going down at?

I guess my question is what is actually happening? I want a news source thats going to be honest and not exaggerate for rage bait. Because I now don’t trust either sides news.

This is coming from a socialist, not a plant to make you question things. I’m genuinely curious. And I think I’d just get banned if I asked r/Conservative itself.
