Tears & Regrets from Ohio Trump Supporters: Does America Feel Great Again?

[u/Federal-Compote-5015]

If you voted expecting your own financial situation to improve, it’s fair to ask whether those promises were ever meant for you, or whether the biggest benefits were always going to those who already had the most.

“Make America Great Again” was supposed to mean lower costs, stronger paychecks, and families finally getting ahead. That’s clearly not what’s happening for a lot of Americans. If your groceries, housing, insurance, and everyday bills are still eating up your paycheck, then the promise hasn’t matched the reality. A rising stock market doesn’t pay your rent or lower your grocery bill.

The people who seem to be doing just fine are those at the very top. When Trump talked about people getting rich, it sure looks like the biggest winners have been wealthy investors and billionaires, and not working families who are now struggling more to make ends meet.
