Promises Made, Prices Up!

from ~ Civics Unhinged: Dispatches from Trumpistan! · host F.P. Dunneagin

Welcome back to Trumpistan, where the only thing cheaper than the truth is the dollar.In this episode, we unpack how Trump’s second-term economics aren’t just a rerun — they’re a sequel written by lobbyists, approved by Mar-a-Lago, and delivered by meme.From trade wars to ghostwritten tax policy, we explore how a reality-TV presidency turned inflation into a branding opportunity, tariffs into gospel, and economic pain into political performance art.It’s not policy — it’s trickle-down vaudeville.And the rest of us?We’re just paying the admission price.
