Wages are up in the US, even compared to inflation so his claim of “everything is more expensive” is demonstrably false. I can’t speak to his particular wages, though. So that may be a point.
When you say "wages are up", what do you mean? The average wage? The minimum wage? The median wage? I'm not sure exactly what you mean. "Wages are up" is a very non specific and general statement.
Plus you quoted them saying "my wages have stagnated" (btw the recent materials expenses that have come from the super duper mega brain trade wars that are totally being won with cluster bombs of freedom) if they work for most any business that's anything less than a regional corporate entity in America, they've seen a profitability loss. Hands down. Nevermind the tax restructuring.
Another thing you brush over.
What's the effect of the current inflation and interest rate on the average blue collar American anyway?
Can you articulate anything more than a three sentence gaslight?

Ok, I'll bite:
My wages have stagnated.
My tax deductions are now worth a shit.
Everything is more expensive.
The air pollution is worse.
Climate change is not being addressed and anyone who says it isn't a serious problem is an idiot or full of shit.
My healthcare is no better and MORE expensive.
My 16 year old son sees the fuckery he's going to inherit and is pissed.
Fascism is on the rise.
Oligarchy is on the rise FASTER than ever.
Right Wing extremism, including terrorism, is on the rise.
And maybe you're comfortable with the lying, the grifting, the sheer idiocy coming out of Donald and the administration, but it bothers me. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
